Assembling feature suggestion (by Goku)
please add an option to snap two parts by selecting to faces.
Like i want to assemble two rectangle.
Option Assemble by snapping
1st - select the face of the first rectangle
2nd select the face of the second rectangle
Then two faces faces of the triangles gets assembled together.
Further edit by changing the axis angle for rotation.

Assembling feature suggestion (by Jaroslav Kopal)
Normals are used for that, aren't they? I select the normals and points of the objects that should be adjacent to each other - the O key and it connects, doesn't it?
Assembling feature suggestion (by Jaroslav Kopal)
I specify .. Normals are used for that, right? I select the normals of both objects, then I press the X key and then the points of the objects that are supposed to adjoin each other - and the O key connects the two bodies together, right?

Jaroslav Kopal,
Exactly.
Select two normals, 'X'
Select two points, 'O'
It does not allow for the "rotation" Goku mentioned, but:
Goku,
What you describe is not very well defined (e.g. how are the two faces aligned? Can they "slide"? Around whet axis is the "rotation"?) and it can be achieved (with a bit of thinking) with the existing constraints.

ruevs-yes it should slide over the surface when moving other than intersecting each other.

Jaroslav Kopal,ruevs - Thanks guys for the help i assembled two parts but the upright is getting transparent and getting hidden when i click the hide all.

First to answer the original question in detail.
"Snapping" two planes together in a "sliding joint" is trivial.
0. "New Group | Link / Assemble..." the two parts.
1. Select the normals of the planes and constrain them to be parallel ("Constrain | Parallel/Tangent" or "L")
2. Select a point from one plane and the other plane and constrain the point to be on the plane ("Constrain | On Point / Curve / Plane" or "O")
An example is attached.

Goku, in your upright.slvs you have created a rather interesting chain of constraints, which I suspect does not do what you intended. But worse - it causes some bug in either the solver or the NURBS engine to make the model "bad".
In this video https://youtu.be/-QbTg9QI83E I have demonstrated the problem and also shown how to fix it using "Step Translating" instead of 27 separate holes.
The resulting fixed model is attached.

ruevs - Thank you soo much it was much easier with the step feature

ruevs -can you please do a video tutorial in your youtube for assembly also.
(no subject) (by ruevs)
There is a pretty decent assembly tutorial already: https://solvespace.com/box.pl
As well as many others https://solvespace.com/tutorial.pl

In the last message I did not make it clear - in addition to the detailed written one, there is a video tutorial on assemblies - one before last at the bottom on the tutorials page.

ruevs - when i import this files to assemble the points are not showing in the exported file.

importing upright.slvs to this file

It worked in the first attempt i think i changed something and saved the file after that after importing points are not showing on imported file to assemble

ruevs - I did force NURBS on all extrudes and now all points shows up fine.
