- [Voiceover] Let's take a minute to look at…how we can place parts and sub-assemblies…into this assembly.…On the screen, I have a blank assembly file,…and if you remember, in the introduction,…I mentioned that an assembly file is just a wrapper.…It's a container to hold other parts and other assemblies.…There's a couple different ways you can initiate…the placement of a component.…First is to go the Assemble tab under the Component panel…and select Place.…The other would be to right-click…and select Place Component from the marking menu.…We're gonna go ahead and do that.…On the screen, you can see…the Place Component dialog box is presented…and it's essentially just an Open dialog.…
You can browse your hard drive,…find the part or assembly you need.…In this case, we're gonna left-click on the base…and you can see a preview of the model,…and we'll select Open to place it into the assembly.…Now when we get back to the screen, in the Graphics window,…you can see as I move my cursor, the part moves with it.…But, it's zoomed in a little bit too far.…
