Moving and Rotating Components From the Move/Rotate Component PropertyManager, you can move and rotate components, add SmartMates, detect collisions and dynamic clearances, and see the motion of assembly components in a realistic way. Contents Moving Components Rotating Components Temporarily Fixing or Grouping Components You can temporarily fix or group components to affect their behavior when you drag to move or rotate components. Collision Detection You can detect collisions with other components when moving or rotating a component. Physical Dynamics Physical Dynamics is an option in Collision Detection that allows you to see the motion of assembly components in a realistic way. Video: Physical Dynamics Conveyor Example Dynamic Clearance You can dynamically detect the clearance between components when moving or rotating a component. As you move or rotate a component, a dimension appears indicating the minimum distance between the selected components. Move Confirmation Dialog Box The Move Confirmation dialog box appears when external relations or dimensions exist on the feature that you want to move.
