Options

• :TRANSLATE - translate the parts/assemblies.
  • :TWO_PTV - the vector direction is the direction from the first point to the second point; the vector magnitude is the distance between the two points.
  • :DIR_LEN - the vector direction and magnitude are defined directly.

• :ROTATE - rotate the parts/assemblies.
• :MATCH_THREE_PTS - match three points on one part or face, to three points on another.
• :MATCH_PT_DIR_PT - match point, direction and point of one part, to another part.
• :MATE_ALIGN - mate and/or align faces of parts.
• :SET_KNOBS - define translational and rotational knobs for dynamic positioning.
• :DYNAMIC - use knobs for interactive positioning.
