I am working on a parametric sunshade family. I have the outrigger and upper bracket working fine.  I have a reference line from the upper bracket to the outrigger flexing just great.  I have a clevis and rod assembly family that is line based, and it works fine as well.  I want to lock the clevis assembly to the reference line so that when the outrigger length changes, the clevis will adjust for length and angle as well (just like the refernce line does).  Please help

Try using "align" and when you align somethign it will give you the option to lock it.

I just tried that and it says I'm over constrained.  I'm uploading so you know what I mean
