New Component Name

New File Location

Sets the location of the new file. To find the part when the assembly is opened, specify its directory by a path in the project used for the assembly.

Default BOM Structure

Sets the default BOM structure for the component.

Note: You can override the structure to be Reference at the component instance level.

Virtual Component

Select the check box to create a virtual component.

Note: A virtual component is a component that requires no modeling of geometry and no file.

Constrain sketch plane to selected face

By default, a mate constraint is created between the selected part face and the sketch plane. If you prefer, clear the check box to prevent the automatic constraint. The option is not available if the new component is the first one in the assembly.
