Description
The
Sketcher SelectRedundantConstraints tool selects the redundant constraints in the sketch.
If such constraints exist in a sketch the Sketch Edit section of the Sketcher Dialog displays this message:
- Redundant constraints: (#, #, #)
Where (#, #, #) are the indices of the constraints. Clicking the underlined text will select the redundant constraints.
Please note that a sketch can also have redundant constraints if one of the other messages is displayed.
Usage
- There are several ways to invoke the tool:
- Click the underlined text in the Sketcher Dialog as described above.
- Select the Sketch → Visual Helpers →
Select Redundant Constraints option from the menu.
- Use the keyboard shortcut: Z then P, then R.
- The redundant constraints are selected.
- Optionally click in an empty area in the 3D View to clear the selection.
Notes
- Redundant constraints must be removed from the sketch.
- Instead of the proposed indices it is also possible to delete other constraints.
