      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt; &lt;SPAN&gt;Mvg Jos,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;Frankly, I am struggling to understand your requirement. I am trying to answer the first question:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;It is now possible to automatically place the paneel.ipt on the paneel geometry using iLogic or DtNet?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Can I understand you want to place &lt;SPAN&gt;paneel.ip&lt;/SPAN&gt;t to mate one face with the face of &lt;SPAN&gt;paneel geometry&lt;/SPAN&gt;? By API, you can constrain faces in the assembly. The below is our training labs.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://github.com/ADN-DevTech/Inventor-Training-Material" target="_blank"&gt;https://github.com/ADN-DevTech/Inventor-Training-Material&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Module 6 introduces the basic usage of constraint in slide 25,26,27 of &lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;A href="https://github.com/ADN-DevTech/Inventor-Training-Material/blob/master/Module%2006%20-%20Assembly%20Documents/Assembly%20Document%20-%20Essentials.pptx" target="_blank"&gt;Assembly Document - Essentials.pptx&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;Of course, these lines can be merged to iLogic.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am sorry if I misunderstood. Then, could you elaborate the requirement further?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
