Hello,
I have an assembly which I 'finished' last week, but I now wish to add a new component to it. I have made the new component in a separate window, saved as a separate part and have now added it to the assembly. However, I am having difficulty applying the constraints that I need between the new component and the existing assembly.
It's difficult to show a screenshot which encapsulates the problem, but as an example, I wish to apply a parrallel constraint between the component and the assembly. In the picture below, I wish to make the largest visible face on each component parallel. However, in the 'Assembly Constraint' window I am only able to select mating features from the new part - I am suddenly unable to select any part of the existing assembly. I have checked and I do not have any selection filters turned on.
I realise this is vague but I can't show a picture of something that is not happening! If anyone could help I'd be very grateful - any questions are welcomed.
Cheers,
Alex
