Sketch recalculates every time I leave edition mode.
I always need to go in edit mode to check sketch dimensions.
But it has only a single Close button. When I use it, it needs to recalculate the design. And sometimes this takes time.
Is it possible to leave this mode without recalculating anything?
Let's say, a Cancel button would be a good idea.

Re: Sketch recalculates every time I leave edition mode.
In the combo view, you can check all dimensions of a sketch.
It would be better to give them an alias to know their role.

Re: Sketch recalculates every time I leave edition mode.
Alright, thanks. So this is the goal of this checkbox.
Re: Sketch recalculates every time I leave edition mode.
Yeah, thanks. But having the constraints visually in the canvas is better when the sketch is complex.Shalmeneser wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 4:47 pm In the combo view, you can check all dimensions of a sketch.

But it looks like the checkbox "Auto update" does it.
Aliases are good, but adding aliases, variables and other features like that just adds more workload and time to the process things. I prefer to make a model in 15 minutes. And redoing it again next time instead of just wasting time adding these features.

No. That prevents an update on every change while staying in Sketcher. Currently there is a recompute whenever you leave the sketch.

I see. Any way to achieve this with python directly in the console?
Re: Sketch recalculates every time I leave edition mode.
There is a function purgeTouched(), which is supposed to mark an object as unchanged. However, I tried on a sketch and it didn't work.

Oh, this was promising and disappointing at the same time but thanks for your effort, I appreciate that.
