Glitchy constrains

Post by baltic »

Can anyone help me to solve the "under/over constraint" problem for the sketch005? Whatever i do, it either shows me that its underconstraint, or overconstraint. When its "overconstraint" it asks me to delete constraints which simply don't exist (like remove constraint 40 but there are only 39 of them)

Hi,
It's not a problem of constraints but of attachment ;)
Property -> attachment -> Map Mode
clic on FlatFace and on the [...] button

you can select the right face ;)

Add a horizontal contraint to one of the now tilted lines. How I found them? I clicked on the blue part in the solver message and tried to move the seleced element.

How did you figure that out? Is there a way to see what the error is when you get exclamation mark icon overlay?

Tried that. It still shows error icon over the body.
