Hi All,
I would like to know, if there is any option to find components with not fully constrained in assembly file instead of checking individual degree of freedom. This will help me if I have more assembly components in my assembly file.

In the assembly navigator, right click on some white space in the left margin and choose Columns... and turn on the "position" column. An icon will appear in this column for each component that represents the constraint status (fully constrained, partially constrained, fixed, unconstrained, arrangement specific, etc).

The Constraint Navigator was introduced with NX 8.0.

One of the 'filtering' options is to 'Group by Components Status', as shown below (I've also attached the image file):
