Hi all,

Recently I have not been able to move components within assemblies by means of dragging on screen from holding down the RMB on my mouse.

→ All parts are Floating (i.e. not fixed)

→No mates are assigned restricting any translational or rotational movement.

The only resolve that I have is to use the "Triad" feature and indicidually move the component on one axis and plane at a time.

I also noticed that often the mates wont respond. I am sometimes able to mate flat faces coincident to one-another succesfully but i will follow up with a second mate (i.e. two edges paralell with one-another). But the assembly will not react.

Has anyone experienced this before? I was able to tolerate it for the first day, but now its really starting to get to me.

Thanks

Ryan
