How to prevent a circular body from rotating

In a weldment assembly i place a symmetric, circular part, but later i want to drill holes in it, and i am afraid that i will accidentally rotate it.

Can i place a constarint that prevents it from rotating? there is no such possibility.

I can ground the part, but i don't like it since if there are modifications they might not be applied (i don't have experience in grounded parts)

You can use constraints on the origin planes to prevent rotating.

Hi!

 

I usually apply angle constrains to prevent rotation. Apply between the cilinder's origin plane with another face or planes's part.
