Why no toggle Offset dimension to Driven

Sometimes I've created an offset then notice it's the wrong side but there no quick\easy way to toggle to the other side after it's created. You can edit in the parameters manager with a minus number or delete, drag then recreate by right clicking the offset icon but adding an ordinary dimension is far more useful as you can toggle it to driven then drag the offset. Being able to toggle to driven is also useful as it allows dragging to what looks\feels right then you can toggle to driving and keep the sketch fully constrained.

 

So the to the point question is, why is the offset dimension different to an ordinary dimension?

Hi Mark,

 

Thank you for posting! Personally I am not sure why the offset is different from the other constraints/dimension but I understand what you mean and I agree that would be a great enhancement. I have escalated this to the development team so they will take a look. (the ticket ID is FUS-40813) I will post more information when I hear back from the team.

 

Thank you for your feedback!
