To Apply Constraints During a Dragging Operation
1. Click
Drag Components. The
Drag dialog box opens.
2. Click Snapshots and select a snapshot from the snapshots list. The name appears in the Current Snapshot text box.
3. Click the Constraints tab and then click one of the following options to create a temporary constraint:
◦ 
—Select two points, two lines, or two planes. The entities remain aligned during the dragging operation.
◦ 
—Select two planes. The planes remain mated during the dragging operation.
◦ 
—Select two planes to orient at an angle to each other.
◦ 
—Select a motion axis to specify motion axis position. You can define multiple constraints for the same motion axis. However, only one can be enabled at any given time.
◦ 
—Select rigid bodies to be locked together.
◦ 
—Select a connection. The connection is disabled.
4. Click or clear a constraint check box. This enables or disables the constraint.
5. Click

to assemble the model using your temporary constraints. Enter the offset value for any mate or align constraints. Enter a value for angle or distance, if you have chosen an orientation constraint.
6. Drag a point or rigid body. The specified constraints are applied.
