Fast referencing to another geometric (line, radius, ...)

theIiadir — Sat, 25 Apr 2020 13:49:14 GMT

I would like to "fast" referencing to other geometrics (lines, radiuses, ...)

Here an example:

I want to place the circle in the middle of d?, which would be d?/2.

Is there a faster way to select the line d? or to show its name instead of going into parameters and look up the name? (I know I could measure it but that's not what I want to do, because its not a reference.)

Or can I show for example the names of all geometrics which I could make a reference? (That would be a really nice feautre.)

Thx for any help.

just click on the other dimension when editing a dimension - that will paste the name of the clicked dimension. Screencast coming soon...

I don't know how to do that. I'm not able to to chose any other dimensions.

here is the promised screencast. Sorry, I got distracted for a while there...

No problem. Thank you for you effort.

I see what you are doing. This feature is very hand.

But I want to "fast" reference to another geometric paramater in another sktech in another component.

Is that possible? (Without going into the parameter option and look it up.)

I think I found a solution with the help of your input.

Actually I have to turn visible another sketch and not another component.

I can reference to another sketch like that clicking the line or radius i want.
