Aligner : a set of tools to move and align 3D parts
Mover : a set of tools to move and rotate 3D parts on different Axis
Measure : a set of tools to measure 3D parts, with some Snap facility and Radius, Length, Angle measurements.
These helpers work with Part, App::Part and Body objects. Each Tool can be Floating or Docked Left or Right.

This macro covers the following constraints:
- Concentric constraint among non cylindrical parts;
- Constraint on center Faces and/or Edges.
It works also with the new Body and App::Part containers, as well as with STEP hierarchy.
