Parallel Joint

I´m Googling way to long for this basic task and have to Ask now.

 

i have to faces that should be parallel to each other. In every CAD tool i select two faces and say parallel, done.

 

not so in F360, as far as i read Joints are not Geometric Mates, ok.

Everthing i found are many steps to set up a slider and set offsets, i dont want an offset, i want a parallel connection.

I dont want to make any planes or similiar, just this litte constrain that 2 faces should stay parallel, no matter how the part move, it just should stay parallel with that two faces, otherwise move in any direction it want.

 

Is this just not possible with F360? and if yes, why?

 

P.S.::

From other Posts i read here.

1. You dont need a part, file, upload or anything else for this simple task.

2. it Doesent matter what party have relations on diffrent axis, move freely, just stay parallel between two faces.

Here is a model with two components where they are parallel to each other and cam move is any other direction.  The Joint to use is a Planar Joint and it is one operation to apply it.  It also can be restricted in the motion is selected planes.  Model is attache.
