Creating Rectangles

This task shows how to create a rectangle. In this task, we will use the Sketch tools toolbar but, of course you can create this rectangle manually. For this, move the cursor to activate SmartPick and click as soon as you get what you wish.

  1. Click Rectangle .
    The Sketch tools toolbar displays values for defining the rectangle. For more information, see Using Tools for Sketching in the Sketcher User's Guide

  1. Position the bottom-left point at: H=20mm, V=20mm.

  1. Position the top-right corner from the first point: Width=40mm, Height=25mm.
    The rectangle is created.
 

Constraints are similarly assigned to this rectangle on the condition you previously activated the Dimensional Constraints option in the Sketch tools toolbar.
As a result, to modify the position of this rectangle, you will perform as follows:

  1. Double-click the constraint corresponding to the value to be modified.
    The Constraint Definition dialog box appears.

  1. Enter 50mm and click OK.
