Description

The Sketcher SelectConflictingConstraints tool selects the conflicting constraints in a sketch.

If such constraints exist in a sketch the Solver messages section of the Sketcher Dialog displays this message:

  • Over-constrained: (#, #, #)

Where (#, #, #) are the indices of the constraints. Clicking the underlined text will select the conflicting constraints.

Usage

  1. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
    • Click the underlined text in the Sketcher Dialog as described above.
    • Select the Sketch → Sketcher tools → Select conflicting constraints option from the menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Z then P, then C.
  2. The conflicting constraints are selected.
  3. Optionally click in an empty area in the 3D view to clear the selection.

Notes

  • Conflicting constraints must be removed from the sketch.
  • Instead of the proposed indices it is also possible to delete other constraints.
