  • cannot move sketch

    If I select the sketch in the sidebar, I do not find any way to move the sketch.If I clicknear the sketch, a orange colored rectangle is opened depending to moves of my mouse. The same happens when I try to catch the Centerpoint of the sketch. If I try to select the geometry, it changes color to orange but I cannot move…

  • Change part ID to be the same for all configurations

    In my model I am configuring a composite curve and then referencing the endpoint of the curve with a sketch. The selections of the composite curve are different in 2 configurations, so the sketch constrain (coincident) loses its reference. Is there a way to over-ride the part ID so that the sketch won't lose its reference?…

I want to create a sketch containing two lines and then extrude one of the lines depending on other conditions. The extrude requires a query as input, but I can't find a query that will return an element with…
