Reference Constraints

Reference constraints can be used to define positioning points to a part or assembly to relocate it in another part or assembly. This feature speeds up the relocating of frequently used parts and your own components.

  1. You can enter several reference constraints - a set of constraints. A maximum of three constraints can be defined for a set.
  2. The constraint set codes must be the same in both parts to be relocated.
  3. The constraints inside the constraint sets have a mutual order.
  4. The type of constraint and the associated element are defined for the constraints. If necessary, also detailed information related to the constraint, for example side or dimension.
Note: When you hold down the Alt key during the insertion, the program does not flip or create constraints.
