Could align tool memorize the constraints I setted?

To make an assembly right, it requires all the detailed constraints. I can’t have two or more constraints on my assembly. If the using history of align tool can be recorded and constraints can be added and displayed, that would be helpful.

Uh, Sorry, new users can not upload attachments.

History designation on the latest update is fine.

Two allignments on two bodies is impossible.  
It always break the first alignment, and two alignments could not exist at the same time.

Hi James,  
You can maintain alignment by selecting multiple bodies. This alignment, however, is not locked or constrained.

I’ve made a similar request for constrained alignments for modeling things with moving parts. Ie hinges, slides, ball joints, etc. Zero response.
