Placeing componets with keystrokes
Placeing componets with keystrokes
(OP)
I am trying to assemble parts using only keystrokes, and am having trouble. I can get to assemble components, and bring the correct part into the assembly. However, I can not figure out how to select the planes that will be used for placement. Any suggestions will be appreciated.





RE: Placeing componets with keystrokes
<Alt> I C A <Enter> (this picks the default selection for insertion)
<Alt> <Alt> <Tab> (drops you into menu tree)
Arrow down to feature (right arrow to expand subassemblies)
<Space bar> to select (ie. a plane)
<Ctrl><Alt> jumps you back into the component placement window
<Enter> moves you to the next constraint; repeat selection of assembly constraints
Not sure how you are going to select constraints from the component being assembled.

Search for all planes in the part, and select the one you need, or, if you know feature ID/Name, you can narrow down your search.
