Points/Lines/circles NOT constrained when drawn.

[samuel777]

This is not a simple to describe. Please be patient. This an example of my issue:

In Sketch Mode. Start a line on a projected end point. My new starting point DOES NOT get constrained to the existing projected geometry. I don't get the GREEN point (at ends or mid of an existing line/edge/point). So I have to go back and manually constrain all my new line/point...sketch entities. I must have changed a setting by mistake 🙂

Can you please help.

Thank you.

Hi samuel777,

I suspect you have accidentally disabled the Constraint Inference and/or Constraint Persistence. Here are some links that describe how to turn those back on:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
