Re: Sketcher: "Align to internal geometry"/Extension of sube

A grouped sub-sketch or an external sketch would be handled by the solver as a single rigid geometry, allowing only translation and rotation operations (if there aren't any constraints that prevent this). I faced that problmem with the assembly solver and in the end a complete rewrite of the sketch...
