Hi,

why after insert block it only works rightly first once?

Dynamic parameters and actions really don't work well with geometric/dimensional constraints.  Pick one or the other and make your block.  In general dynamic parameters and actions are better than constraints (easier to use, more consistent in their behavior, use less memory, etc, etc...) but there are some things that the dynamic parameters and actions cannot do that constraints can do.  The only thing in your block that cannot be done with dynamic parameters and actions is the direct input for the angle in properties that results in the update of the various other distances.  If that is strictly necessary, then constraints are needed and you should delete the dynamic parameters and actions and use dimensional constraint parameters instead.

The constraints are messing it up.  Delete all of them and only add ones you absolutely need if it can't be solved any other way.

Here's how to make it all fully functional using only the constraints.

ok I can see (not only here) that constrains and actions isn't good connection...
summary:
connect only constrains with dimensional constraints without actions
or

dynamic parameters with actions without geometric/dimensional constraints,

Thanks 🙂
