You haven't stated what version of Inventor you are using (my guess is 2010).

You have either turned off Constraint Persistance or Constraint Options.
A search here on those terms might turn up a video.

You haven't stated what version of Inventor you are using (see first response).

 

What happens if you Right Mouse Button while editing a sketch?  (see 4)

I had the same problem as this thread with line snapping. version 2011. what solved it was the right click of mouse and clicking "constraint options" and "selcting all", I was lost for about 1 week. trying to learn contraints made me click it off and mess me up. problem solved, thanks
