Select Mate Reference
When more than one mate reference is available, the Select Mate Reference
dialog box displays a list of
mate references.
The dialog box can appear when using these workflows:
- Inserting a component.
- Dragging a component from the FeatureManager design
tree.
- Dragging a file from the File
Explorer tab in the Task Pane.
- Dragging a file from the Design
Library tab in the Task Pane.
To select a mate reference:
- Open a model where multiple references are available between
two components.
In this example, you create a mate reference
between a knob and a plate. The plate has several positions that you can
select.
- Drop the knob over the plate.
Select Mate Reference
appears when the knob is
over the plate.
- In the Select Mate
Reference
dialog box, select a
reference.
