Welcome
Sorry for my english
My question is how to position the two elements in the Assembly at a certain distance from each other.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

At the moment you need to create mate connector and check 'move', set offset values according to distance you need. Then use this mate connector to position parts.

Remember also that you can create multiple parts in same part studio and use dimension tool for positioning.

ps. I have understood that offset possibility is coming in future updates to standard connectors too.

Another option is to insert both components, position them relative to each other using the drag manipulator or free drag. Once  you are happy you can create a group consisting of these two components. This will ensure that relative position between the components will never change.
