Moving Components

I am currently putting together an assembly of individual parts and sub-assemblies. The sub assembly in question is a bearing adapter (standard assembly used in many different apps) which rotates, when inserting this sub-assembly into my final assembly the part does not rotate.


Can this be done with relative ease and if so, any insight would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

The way to do this is to right click on the sub-assembly in the feature manager then click component properties. Near the bottom it will ask if you want it solved rigid or flexible. Flexible will allow it to rotate
