How to NOT create automatic sketch constraints

[Anonymous]

Sometimes when I am sketching, I do not want Inventor to automatically place sketch constraints. Is there some way to do this while sketching? (i.e. hold down the 'ctrl' key while sketching)

[Anonymous]

Did you try holding the CTRL key down while sketching?

Technically, the answer to your question is: Yes.

Do you guys use the left hand or right hand ctrl key? Which one seems to work better?

[Anonymous]

I use the left one myself but this in no way reflects my political
persuasion......

In R11, go to Tools->Application Options->Sketch->set Constraint Placement
Priority to None.

I had forgotten about this thread. You guys are brutal!

[Anonymous]

I think you hold CTRL and it blocks auto constraints
