Just wondering if there is a config option to set assembly default constraint type?  For example, I want the default to be Coincident, can this be done?  Right now, the default is Automatic.

Yes Sir!

auto_const_always_use_offset

Yes - auto constraint always creates offsets.

No - Auto constraint snaps align or mate if surfaces are within tolerance. (Default behavior)

Never - Auto constraint never creates offsets.

If you choose to use the default behavior of working within a tolerance (epsilon) you can specify the epsilon to give you more or less room to make it behave according to your preferences.
