[BUG] Coincidence with external geometry in Sketcher WB

[chrisb]

Oh, well, on my FreeCAD - latest MacOS, but not really current - the origin is selected if I select the corner.

issue #3831.

Thanks

Bejant, could you please retest with the reproduction recipe I gave in the ticket?

When selecting the Coincident Constraint in the 3D view (directly or with Box Selection), the origin is not included. But selecting the Coincident Constraint from the Constraints Widget, the origin is also selected, as kisolre reported. An example file is attached with a Sketch on each side of the default Part Design > Cube as described in the ticket.

Just to clarify something I may be misunderstanding : how can you select the coincident constraint in the 3D view (as AFAIK there is no symbol for this particular constraint) ? Here I actually only can select the point itself. Thx.

Just to be complete, I noticed the same behavior if selecting the drawing line and click on "Select the constraints associated to the selected line".

I have updated the tracker entry.

Just as you wrote: select the vertex where the Coincident Constraint lies, and press the Delete key. Or do a left-to-right Box Selection around the vertex and press the Delete key. For me Box Selection is faster because I don't have to be exact trying to select the vertex, as I would be when selecting the vertex directly.

OK. I actually didn't know that Delete key has a particular behavior when a point is selected.
