Sketch constraints not working? but shown on Rhino help pages?

hi group

where are the sketch constraints in rhino 8?
this web help page has detailed various constraints commands but they don’t work?

Constraints | Rhino 3-D modeling

Hi Adrian, the link url you posted is to the Rhino 9 help (WIP)

Hi Japhy
thankyou for your reply.
I realized that after I uploaded the question and have since downloaded Rhino 9 wip, however, the constraints have a way to go… :frowning:
I was hoping I could use them in 2d sketches to create/design simple mechanisms but they are not advanced enough…

i have since seen Freecad might do this so I might download a copy of that to try, but ultimately would prefer to stay in Rhino if I can…
if anyone has any tips on doing 2d joint sin rhino for simple mechanism simulation please advise.
