But until then...
I saw another post about this issue from November 2019 but it had no resolution so I'm posting this with more details.
With an A2plus assembly, every time I edit one of the components and update the assembly, the "Constraints inconsistent. Cannot solve System. Please delete your last created constraint!" error comes up.
It happens when...
- adding a new feature to a part (as in add a pocket with it's own sketch)
- adding something to an existing feature (as in adding adding a circle to an existing sketch to create a hole in a pad)
- changing a property of an existing sketch entity (as in changing diameter or location of a hole by editing the circle in the sketch)
- changing the length of a pad or pocket
I've tried to find and fix the offending constraint by using the constraint highlight tool. Usually I can identify the constraints that are broken. But fixing them is pretty near impossible if a part has a dozen constraints associated with it and eight of them are broken.
Is there a workaround or technique for this that I am missing? There must be, because having to basically start over on an assembly after a fairly minor edit to a component is a major issue. I must be doing something wrong.
Thanks in advance.
