NXOpen::Positioning::Constraint::Alignment

alignment

[version_created("4")] the constraint, as returned by Positioning::Constraint::ConstraintAlignment , is Positioning::Constraint::AlignmentInferAlign .

The hint can only have an effect when the constraint has been explicitly added to a Positioning::Network .

Passing in Positioning::Constraint::AlignmentInferAlign as the alignment argument will have no effect.

The hint is forgotten after an update.
