Learning Center/GUI Q's

david_cushing

I'm new to CAD in general. I'm going through the 'Learning Center' and in part 1 under 'Basic Sketching' you make a sketch
and then fully constrain it. I've done the sketch, the last part being the sketch-fillet, now I'm not sure how to fully constrain it.
The fillet part is still blue.

My GUI Q is: I'm using FF v42 browser and when I start a sketch the tool bar extends past the edge of the screen.
I can get to that tool, it's the 'Fix' tool, but weather it's the last one, or there is a drop down menu for it or other tools I don't know cause I can't SEE the tool icon. Is this a FF thing or general browser thing?


 
As you can see in this pic the unconstrained fillet and in the top right corner the tip of the icon I can't see in the GUI.

The poor fitting toolbar is due to the size of your window and resolution.  It is something we are actively looking at (the responsiveness of our product in general).  Everything fit nice until we started doing silly things like adding new features and functionality.

It is the fix icon and yes it is the last icon. In FF just Click Ctrl and - to adjust the browser so that you can see all the icons.

Hey thanks _Dave_ . You are correct sir.
I will work on my other Q tomorrow.

Ok, so I fixed my constrain problem. I guess I never did a tangent constrain on the blue line in the above pic with the bottom left circle. I did that and BAM!!! all black sketch

You are right, all those silly updates have filled up our monitors and even worse, took most of our time that we used to spend with good old installed real cad software in big computers.
