Learn about aligning parts together.
- [Narrator] Most of you should already be familiar…with moving and rotating components inside an assembly.…Using your left mouse button you should be able to…move things around just by holding down your mouse button…and moving them around the screen.…If you hold down your right mouse button…you should be able to rotate that same part.…But what many of you might not know about is…the move command up here.…So to click on the move command on the assembly toolbar.…I have a bunch more options here that I can turn on,…and tools I can use…to move my components and alignment correctly.…So my standard drag is exactly what I have right now.…
I just click on a part and move it around.…But now I can also turn on collision detection.…So if I move it over I can actually…stop when it hits another part.…And you can see which faces are interfering.…That's pretty handy.…You can turn on physical dynamics,…and adjust how the part is moving around…and you can add things to that.…If you go back to collision detection,…if you go down here to dynamic clearance…
