Dynamic stretch and maintaining circle radius/fillet

[Anonymous]

Hi! 

Is it possible to use a dynamic block linear stretch and maintain the correct, smooth corner between the circle and the angled line? In reality it the end of the angled line would have to move along the circle diameter. 

Is there another way to achieve the same result? To stretch an object like this in length, but maintaining all the other elements how they are.

I think in this case you should look in the constraints direction

To add to the post.  You are right.  Constraints are the way to go.  There are a lot of different constraint options.  The ones that were used in the block are the concentric and tangent functions.  If using constraints make sure that they are from the Block Editor menu and not the Parametric menu.

Thanks for your answer. I understand the example that you mentioned, but my block is much more complex and somewhere I probably mess it up.

Attached a first attempt how that can be done using parametric constraints. 

You can change the width (B1) and the height (H1) as well as the wire diameter, the bend radius and other dimensions if needed.

Thank you so much for your help!
I didn't know that the "equal" constraint can work for arc radius. And it also makes the block much cleaner instead of adding dimentional constrains to every arc.
