Constraints and relationships

- In the previous video I moved some of the components around, get 'em closer to where they needed to be. So, now, I'm going to constrain these components in this assembly. So, I'll go into my assemblies tab, go into assembly constraints. Now, you need a component that is fixed, first thing. And, when we brought in that housing, it was the first component we brought in. The system asked us, do we want to fix this? And it did create that fixed constraint for us. You can see, there it is. If I try to apply it again, I did here, it's just gonna say, hey, do you really wanna do another one? We really don't. So, we're just gonna hit no. But, if the case were you needed a fix, you wouldn't get any messages you would just hit the fix, hit the component, hit apply. Got it. Next thing I wanna do, I wanna start moving, or apply my constraints, to my components. Now, the first component I wanna constrain is my stem. So, I wanna clean up the screen a little bit and remember, I've talked about…
