Fixing a Component

This task shows you how to set the first constraint. This operation consists in fixing the position of a component in space so as to use this component as the base of the assembly.
1.  Select CRIC_FRAME in the specification tree or in the geometry area.
2.  Click the Fix Component icon in the Constraints toolbar.

The  component CRIC_FRAME is immediately fixed. The application indicates this by displaying a green anchor symbol on the component. 

Note also that the Constraints branch now displays the new constraint. The anchor symbol is preceded by a lock symbol, to make a distinction between "fix in space" and "fix operations". For more information, pleaser refer to Fixing a Component.
