Hello everyone I have problem with mate width. Basicly macro opening two parts making assembly after that selecting two faces adding mate "concident" after that selecting two faces from one item and two faces from second item. It should connect them by mate width (one item between the other). I'm using similar mate instruction

like with mate "concident" "Set myMate = AssyDoc.AddMate5(11, 0, True, 0#, 0#, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0#, 0#, 0#, False, False, 0, longstatus)" but it's not adding this mate. I don't know what I should do to add this mate...

Thanks for the help in advanced!
