Is this normal?

Post by clintonsam75 »

The grid lines disappear and reappear as I construct my sketches. The grid isn't even center as the center circle clearly demonstrates at the end of the video.

Oh... when it comes to the center circle, I didn't realize I had auto constraints unchecked. After looking at the video again, I noticed the circle was created bottom center of where I actually clicked but I guess that wouldn't have happened if I had auto constraints turned on. For some reason I just couldn't see the second red circle even though I was actually looking for it.

But what about the issue with the grid lines? Is that normal?

I think such a behavior of grid is the intended behavior. Anyway, I have grid in sketcher turned off, because I think it's useless anyway.
PS. I moved your topic.

Okay, thank you for clearing that up for me and for moving the thread. I was just starting wonder if it was only me for some reason. I thought maybe something was wrong with my computer.
