Anchoring Objects

Objects can be anchored in the workspace / workdesk. This will prevent free movement since the object is fixed in place and cannot be moved or rotated.

Objects that can be anchored are library components, control points of paths (wires, cables, bundles, any type of surface protection), and imported 3D models.

Prerequisite:

You have opened a workspace / workdesk window.

  1. Select the desired object.
  2. Activate the Anchored check box in the Properties panel.

    The object is anchored.

    Anchored objects are indicated by blue color in the tree view.

Note:

Objects with slave constraints can be moved / rotated even if a corresponding object with master constraints is anchored. Objects with master constraints cannot be moved / rotated if a corresponding object with slave constraints is anchored.
