◦ Contents—Saves the configuration information in the assembly's contents file.
5. Select a Pos Mode (positioning mode):
◦ Absolute—If you move the assembly in the viewport, the parts move into the exact positions that are defined in the configuration.
◦ Relative—If you move the assembly in the viewport, the parts move into positions that are relative to their current location.
