Sketch constraints browser

  • Extended Information check box - show/hide Primitives and Parameter columns

Right click on any constraint opens context menu:

  • Edit… - edit value of constraint’s numeric parameter, if it exists

  • Delete - delete constraints

  • Deactivate/Activate - (de)activate constraints

Edit

For constraints with a numeric parameter (Angle, Length, Radius e.t.c.), values can be changed in the following ways:

  1. Select one/multiple constraint(s) -> right click -> Edit… -> hit Enter to apply;

  2. Double click on a constraint value.

Limitations:

  1. It is not possible to set negative values to all constraints with a numeric parameter

  2. It is not possible to set zero value to “Length constraint”

Delete

Select one/multiple constraint(s) -> rightg click -> Delete.

Activates/deactivates applied constraints. Deactivating the constraint allows to examine and manipulate the sketch or shape as if the constraint wasn’t there.
