Comments

• Incident Diagnosis :
  SpotPoint Creation ("On Point" location method) :
  Impossible to select a point in order to locate the
  fastener.
  .
  Correct Application :
  The selected point (blue point) does not belong to
  the BiW Joint linked parts. This kind of geometrical
  element is not valid to specify the location of
  Fasteners. This restriction is mentionned in
  Automotive Body In White Fastening
  documentation : "the selection of geometrical
  elements must be done within the linked parts,
  except when using such options as Datum mode
  and Explicit locations. "
  Note : With the "Explicit" location method, this point
  (blue point) can be selected, but only its
  coordinates are used. The user selected point is not
  kept. When the location method is switched to "On
  Point", there is no point selectionned as "Reference
  Point". This can be seen in the "More" panel
  associated to the location method.
