Creating Mates in Large Design Review

When you edit assemblies in Large Design Review mode, you can create mates between components and use geometry types as mate references. These mates and mate references are available when you open the assembly in lightweight or resolved mode.

Supported mate types:
Angle Lock
Coincident Parallel
Concentric Perpendicular
Distance Tangent

You can use the following geometry types as mate references for any component in the assembly:

Arc edges Conical faces Cylindrical faces
Linear edges Planar faces Vertices

Temporarily Fixed Components

For existing mates or mate references that are not supported in Large Design Review mode, the mates and mate references appear as temporarily fixed .

Flexible subassemblies perform like rigid subassemblies in Large Design Review mode.
