Slide function

Good evening.

When I do a slide function in one of my assemblies, I only have the choice to center it...

Why don't I have the ability to drag from one point to another?

Thank you

Hello

we need an example perhaps.

 

Pay attention to the direction of your selection, slider/slide

Did you have solidworks 2015? Because the fact that it can be slid is a new feature for 2015...

Check your slide and advanced constraints

If you take a rectangle for example and you do a slide function with your large faces. You can then "slide" along these faces (i.e. set the small faces in motion).

 

Now, if you put a positioning constraint on these small faces... Your room is centered by its large faces and can no longer move

Hello

Be careful, you have to select 4 sides, as in the following video:
