Adding Mate constraint using cylinder face axis

[Jef_E]

Hi,

I am struggling to add a mate constraint between 2 cylindrical faces (axis to axis).

If I just constraint the faces it results in an triangle warning in Inventor.

How do you select the axis from a face with surface type kCylinderSurface and constraint it?

' Constraint the planes axis
_Assembly.ComponentDefinition.Constraints.AddMateConstraint(oTubesheetFaceProxy, oTubeAxisFaceProxy, 0, InferredTypeEnum.kInferredLine, InferredTypeEnum.kInferredLine)

Use the optional input line
