There are two Mate Alignment options. The Aligned option positions the components so

that the normal vectors from the selected faces point in the same direction. The Anti-

Aligned option positions the components so that the normal vectors from the selected

faces point in opposite directions.

-;Q-:. Use for positioning only. When selected, components move to the position defined

by the mate, but a mate is not added to the FeatureManager design tree. A mate appears

in the Mates box so you can edit and position the components, but nothing appears in the

FeatureManager design tree when you close the Mate PropertyManager.
