Thank you. It was too tempting, but failed too often. I'd use it all the time if it would not put bad mates in after I've canceled.
That's interesting. I use it all the time and I haven't had any complaints with the results. What do you mean it's putting in bad mates? The only thing I don't like is that if it's displaying, I have to move the mouse in order to pull up my shortcut menu.
If I use that tool to put in a mate and SW complains that it's off plane, or something, I'll cancel it, but it puts the mate in anyway and the feature tree turns red. Doing mates the regular way you can cancel after it complains, and it doesn't put the mate in.
Normal mates seems better in SW2014. I noticed it will choose parallel, rather than complain it's automatic choice of coincident won't work, that's nice since I do that a lot. There was something else too I like, but I can't remember right now.
Try using Ctrl Z to remove the problem mate when that happens.
