Hi all, The Rhino WIP provides the ability to create constraints. Constraints are a set of rules such as the length of a line, or angle between two lines, that are added to geometry. These allow you to build complex relationships in your model that are maintained as geometry is being manipulated. […

It is implemented on Mac but there’s no way to get to it currently. It will be switched to CTRL + Right Click in the near future to support be able to support Mac. I’ll add a note to the issue.

The “Constraints” feature is very exiting! Here are some observations after experimenting with the WIP; I’m hoping some of these ideas are on the roadmap (please do tell). Imagine I’d like to manufacture a basic bracket that I would create on a CNC machine. The bracket has four holes in it: [imag…

perfect suggestions! I add variables could be local and global, per sketch and per drawing…

horizontal constraint.3dm (212.8 KB) Somehow horizontal gets broken [image]

This is a promising feature. As non-Rhino user, but professional CAD modeler, are there any plans to introduce the concept of assemblies into Rhino with constraints features like you’d find in Fusion or Inventor? The sketch constraints are great, but what would really make me consider “jumping the f…

Oh, well what do we have here :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes:

This is all really fantastic feedback. Thanks for taking the time to write it out. [image] Mattytraxx: There seems to be some confusion around the difference between constraints and dimensions : I think you’re right. I am doing some work on alleviating this confusion, namely by hooking up pa…

[image] Juan_Gallo: Somehow horizontal gets broken Thanks for reporting this. I notice the constraints resolve the next time the solver runs. Do you remember how you ended up in this situation?

[image] Joshua Kennedy: using a halo around constraint curves. [Screen Shot 2022-04-27 at 9.21.44 AM] Is that barely visible white fuzziness what you mean by “halo”, or is it an artifact of low-quality discourse display? If it is what you mean, I would suggest a slightly more aggressive appe…
