Hey!

 

I've had this problem with a number of sketches: 

  • The sketch has a number of offset curves.
  • The sketch is fully constrained.
  • If I then draw a line between 2 of the offset curves, and delete the line again, all the offset curve become unconstrained.
  • This only seems to happen to sketches that reach a certain level of complexity. It doesn't happen if I make a new sketch, create a couple offset curves and try and re-create the problem.

I've attached 3 files. 

  1. State 1. Fully constrained.
  2. State 2. Added line between 2 offset curves.
  3. State 3. Deleted the line. Sketch now unconstrained. 

 

Note of offset curves:

  • I originally was using the Offset Curve feature, and had this problem.
  • This time, I just manually re-drew the curves, made the corner radii concentric, and offset the curves manually. Same problem. 

Any ideas? It makes it tough that I can't backtrack into a sketch a delete lines I no longer need.
