I appreciate all the effort you guys make in making my sketch better.
But can we accept the fact that I want to have this little piece in one piece
.
IMO, no, not when there is a better approach.
I want to have it like this for a reasons:
I will carbon copy it to my other sketches. (I'm creating my own sketches library)
I used CC to make the different size splines.
I will use its edges to make constraints for other edges.
As can be done with simpler sketches. (and possibly other tools)
I don't want to have too much sketches for some bodies, so I'm not going to create additional sketch just to do the pocket.
I don't understand what this means, you have created 2 sketches, I have created 2 sketches.
If you want to explain the long term goal of your thinking, it may help us understand why you feel the need for more complicated sketches.
Theoretically it is possible to make it much more readable by using equality constraints instead of measures but as I have said I could not tame it, a the end of constraining I got this "orange" over-constraining all the time and when I started to delete constraints it broke.
Then that is something you need to actually create the issue in a sketch and then start a thread where we can, hopefully, give you pointers on how it can be tamed. One typical cause of over constrained warning is complicated sketches and complicated constraining schemes.
Now if you know the way to do it without array methods I will be glad.
But, arrays are the most efficient way to accomplish the task as I understand it...maybe I don't. As I ask above, explanation of the ultimate goal...
If you prefer your way, then that is enough to say and we need not continue the discussion. We are simply attempting to help you design a more efficient and maintainable model.
