Catia V5 - Constrain / position bodies within a CATPart

[Donnis]

Hello,

which is the best way to position PartBodies within a multibody CATPart using constraints (dimensions, etc.) and not using the compass? Are there some recomandations or best practices? For example, if I receive AllCATPart files and I am trying to move some components in other positions...

Thanks in advance.

I don't recommend doing this, but I think you have to isolate the geometry first in order to get the constraints to control the positions. Maybe isolating all the planes is all you need?
