Does SolidWorks have a way to properly constrain a screw to
the mating hole with only 1 constraint operation? In Inventor there
is an 'Insert' constraint which is equivalent to constraining the
screw (or anypiece) to be concentric to the mating hole as well as
constaining an edge on the screw to be coincident with the mating
face. It constraints 5 DOF of the screw. (The screw is still free
to rotate in the hole). I tried to pick an edge on the screw and
constrain it to be coincident to the hole edge, but SW would not
allow this.
Thanks.
