Hello,

I'm struggling with something wonder if anyone can help.

I'm creating a range of adaptors and connectors, and I need to include routing ports with a positive engagement - distance the male connector sits inside the female adaptor.

Unfortunately, positive engagement doesn't seem to be working, instead the two faces with routing ports on touch each other.

If I change the engagement to a negative value, then it works fine and leaves a gap.

So does anyone know why the positive engagement isn't working.

To demonstrate, I've created a simple assembly including an adaptor, and two connectors one with positive, one with negative engagement.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

NX 8.5 with TC 8.3
