Description
This app allows you to create flush constraints between the origin planes of multiple components.
All components in your select set will be constrained to the first item in the set.
It is also possible to mate the origins with offsets between either the x/y/z planes, this can be done using the button Mate With Offsets. Here it is also possible to disable one or more of the directions. When activating the command, a toolbar shows. In the toolbar you can toggle the xy, yz and xz planes, and specify offsets.

This is a great little tool and I use it often. Ther only problem I have is that I don't seem to be able to mate an object with its parent assembly. This is something I do often.
Hi Kenny, do you mean like 'ground and root'? This is a function that is already in inventor!
Hi Bas, Do you mean the "Place Grounded at Origin Button"? In which case this is only available when placing a components.
Is it work in inventor 2024?
Yes it works!
When i finished installing and add in to inventor 2023. But when opening the feature, a message is showed: "Your license to use this plug-in is not valid. Please check your license at Autodesk.com"
That means you are not using the same email address to login to inventor as to login to the appstore.
Works as expected. Seems like a funciton that should be available in the primary software functionality already. Nice work.
