Sketch not defined & I can't figure out why?

Anonymous

Hi All, second post in as many days!

 

I've cut some slots in a bar & 30°. It took me a little while to figure out how to do this but I used two construction planes to sketch on at the correct distances.

 

My issue is the sketch is not constrained and I've tried every which way to work out why. I normally get errors saying over-constrained or cannot solve. Please help, I'm sure there was probably a better way to achieve the slots so i am all ears.

Thanks, Paul

Hi @seth.madore,

 

This is what I thought. When I go to assemble with the mating components the slots are missing.

Are you able to suggest another way of sketching the features?

 

Thanks, Paul

There aren't any mating components in the file you shared. Did you "insert linked component" into another design? Can you share the proper files here?

Hi,

The cause is the undefined construction line for angular dimensioning (150°) .

But this has no influence on the other problem.
