Angular Limit Mate w/ Axes?

Hi all,

In the assembly of the attached folder (titled "Mouse"), I'm looking to add an angular limit mate between the Top Plane of the assembly and both of the axes labeled as "Axis_Angle Mate".

However, when I select both entities as mate entities, angular options are greyed out (see attached screenshot!).

Is this because axes aren't valid mate entities for angular mates, or otherwise?

All help is appreciated :)!

Thanks in advance,

You can't create an angle mate between a linear entity (axis, edge, line, etc) and a planar entity.

You can create angle mates between two linear entities, or between two planar entities.
