Symmetry	Faces of solids and edges of shells	N/A	N/A
Roller/Slider	Faces	N/A	N/A
Fixed Hinge	Cylindrical faces	N/A	N/A
Use reference geometry	Vertices, Edges, and Faces	Face, edge, plane, or axis	Prescribed translations and rotations in the desired directions.
On Flat Faces	Planar faces	N/A	Prescribed translations and rotations in the desired directions associated with the selected planar face.
On Cylindrical Faces	Cylindrical faces	N/A	Prescribed translations and rotations in the desired directions associated with the selected cylindrical face.
