Morning everyone. Creo 2.0 Question. Assembly mode under assembly constraints .... What is the centered constraint?
 
Works great for constraining spherical objects (ie. ball joints).

Every try to make two parts "coincident", but Creo keeps jumping to a "tangent" constraint? That is probably because one of the objects is not truelly a cylinder (or cone) and probably has some spherical features or compound curves in the surface. Give the "centered" constraint a try when this happens.
