Hello @Ankit_Jaiswal ,

one of the child article of the link I shared with you yesterday is dedicated to couplings being moved to the new entity Constraint, and then explain how to deal with these Constraints, including how to edit them. You can select them as any entity, but through the Idle model (selector top left in the graphic area) or the model browser you need to select Constraints, not element. Then you can edit the constraint, especially the set of secondary nodes:
