FIxed components on an assembly still move

Hi,

if I make an assembly (all parts fixed) and insert it into another, I still can move the components of the first assembly (that has became a sub-assembly) one relate to other, is it right? Normally in other CAD system when you insert a sub assembly, you can't move sub-components of the sub-assembly, where am I wrong?

    Hi,

    still have an issue about this; if I insert an assembly inside one other, why can't I fix the first one as I know this is a static frame?

    Just found the solution, only needed to fix one part inside the subassembly.

    In any case still I don't get the reason of this, but maybe it's just because this is different from other CADs.

    Regards.
