"Click-Stops" for Revolute (or other) Mates

Jim_AndersJim_Anders Member Posts: 24 ✭✭
One of my assemblies (which is publicly shared) - Camera Positioner Mount, has a swing arm (in blue) that is designed to click into position using detents in the circular hub with a spring loaded plunger.  Is there a way to define or simulate these discrete click positions?  I guess this could also apply to slider mates as well.

    We don't currently have a way to restrict assembly motion in this way.
    Would the ability to limit the mate angle help? In addition to the overall limit range, there could be stops at set increments.
