Hello again.
I have one assemblie which moves with its degrees of freedom.
When inserted into another assembly stops moving.
What am I doing wrong?
How I can make it move?
Thanks for all.
Best regards.

When it is inserted it might be coming in as "Fixed". If this is the case you will see (f) in front of the assembly name in the tree. Make if Float then add the apprpriate mates.

If you want the motion of the subassembly to also be available in the top level assembly you will need to click on the subassembly, go to its Properties, and in the lower right corner of that window select "Flexible".

Thanks Updraft, the solution is the second you say.
I make the Subassembly flexible and it works.
Thanks for all.
Best regards.
