This task shows
you how to set various geometrical constraintsusing
a dialog box. For example, you can use the Constraint command to finalize
your profile and set constraints consecutively. You may define several constraints simultaneously using the Constraint Definition dialog box, or by means of the contextual command (right-click). |
||||
If you want the constraints to be created
permanently, activate Dimensional constraints
and/or the Geometrical constraints (depending
on the type of constraint you want to create) from the Sketch Tools
toolbar. If you do not activate these icons, the constraints will only be
created temporarily. |
||||
Open the Constraint_DialBox.CATPart document. | ||||
|
Note that, by default, a diameter constraint is created on closed circles when checking the Radius/Diameter option. If you need a radius constraint, you just have to convert this constraint into a radius constraint by double-clicking it and choosing the Radius option. | ||||

At any time after the constraint was created, you can modify the constraint measure direction and/or reference. See Defining Constraint Measure Direction for more details. |
