Make "Accept" default when placing constraints?

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have an item that is really a time killer when placing multiple constraints in Assembly.  EVERY constraint require clicking on the "Accept" button before continuing.  Is there a setting that can be changed to make this default?

 

I have used Solid Edge in the past, and currently use both SolidWorks and Inventor.  Neither Solid Edge nor SolidWorks work this way.

 

When I place constraints they are correct 98% of the time, if wrong it is easy to back up and fix. I do NOT want to be required to click Accept every time.

 

There must be something I am missing in settings, and yes I have searched here before posting, and and have looked through settings for a LONG time, cannot find any way to fix this.

I meant "Apply" button, not "Accept". 

 

Once I place a constraint it should be automatically "Applied", and I should not have to physically Apply it!!!!  As I said earlier, 98% of the time it is correct, just go ahead and take it and let me move on.  If wrong, it is easy to back up and fix, but that is pretty rarely needed.

Hi ,

 

Currently there is no such option.

I think your idea is very good, please submit idea to Inventor Ideas.

I think it's different.

Default is Apply when "Enter" is pressed.

I think OP want "Auto Apply" after feature selection.

 

Moving from graphic area to dialog box to click Apply is slow.

Right click with Marking Menu is much faster.
