SpaceClaim creates the constraint and does not complain, however the screw is not moved into position. Is this a bug on SC or am I doing something wrong? <\/p>\n<p> &nbsp;I&#8217;ve managed to do it, but switching to a section view and doing the tangent selecting edges on the 2D view, but when I go back to a 3D view I&#8217;m able to move the screw out of its locations (using the move tool), as if the constraint was not holding the component in place. <\/p>\n<p> I&#8217;ve attached picture and model if it helps to debug the problem <\/p>\n<p> Thanks for your help <\/p>\n<div class=\"attachment\">\n<span class=\"info\"> &#x1F6C8;<\/span><br \/>\n<b>This post originally contained file attachments which have been removed in compliance with the updated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ansys.com\/legal\/terms-and-conditions\">Ansys Learning Forum Terms &#038; Conditions<\/a><\/b>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-255695","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-spaceclaim"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["278329"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["375"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["255695"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27789"],"_bbp_engagement":["126","3001","278329"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["266843"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["266843"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2020-06-19 18:38:40"]},"test":"gariascadfemuk-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/255695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/255695\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=255695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
