maybe the functionality is there and i havn't found out how to use it yet, but I would like to be able to mate one component to the origin planes or axis of another component. For instance, perhaps I have a spherical part that I want to align with a cubic part. I would like to select a face on the cube and have it alight paralel to the selected origin plane of another component. a distance mate our joint in the sme instance would also be helpful.
Need to be able to use construction planes / body origin / body axes - as references in Joints.
Currently constrained to feature creations - which can really be troublesome in certain situations. And lacking in others, such as the current inability to use a plane of symmetry as a joint reference.
yes. Currently very frustrated trying to assemble two components along planes of symmetry. There are no simple surfaces available in my parts for the available joints. In Solidworks this would be an extremely simple "mate" operation, mating the XY planes of each. about 3 clicks. And the result would be totally insensitive to subsequent editing of the parts, because the planes remain the same.
I've read stuff about the 360 "joints" paradigm being different, but I don't see how it would be better here than just mating two planes to be coincident.
See below. I'm modelling a mounting bracket for a solar panel on a tree. I want to make the XY plane of the panel (shown grey) coincident with the XY plane of the tree, shown in blue. I've already successfully made a coincident planar joint between the panel and the angled bracket members. Of course I could work around this, eg by actually modelling the mounting holes and "jointing" them, but I'm using this as an exercise to learn 360. At the top edge of the panel you can see a joint origin that I have impotently tried to use to locate my panel using the "between two planes" function, but it didn't work.
Really annoying is this and I'm out of ideas. Having a part with irregular shapes so it's impossible to do planar joints with other parts having only the origin planes as decent reference. See this idea is from 2016, so almost 3 years later still no way to deal with this challenge.
