Geometric Constraints Toolbox
The tools in the Geometric Constraints toolbox are used to create geometric constraints.
All tools in a toolbox are not always visible by default. To see all tools, right-click in the toolbox and select Show All from the menu.
| To | Select in the Geometric Constraints toolbox |
|---|---|
| Constrain geometry to be tangent, perpendicular, parallel, or fix angle to horizontal or vertical. | Constrain Elements |
| Make a variable a constant or make a construction invariant (not recalculated when solving). | Make Construction or Parameter Invariant |
| Constrain a point (or the center of a circle or an ellipse) to lie on a construction. | Constrain Point On Construction |
| Constrain a point to the intersection of two constructions. | Constrain Point at Intersection |
| Constrain two points to be coincident, two circles to the same center, or a point to the center of a circle. | Constrain Two Points to be Coincident |
| Fix the location of a point in the design. | Fix Point at Location |
| Equate the endpoints of constructions. | Equate Parameters or Constructions |
