The 2 other circle icons further down the page displayed the same (didn't look right).
It is corrected. It was an error from my side: I use LaTeX for document creation and it seems to handle images differently on my different systems. Deleting the alpha channel from the images seemed to fix things but degraded arcs (among few others which I hopefully had found).
Thanks for this tutorial! I read through it so far and attached a few comments. Hopefully it's useful and you find time to complete the remaining sections soon!

Thank you for the comments, I will look through them soon. I appreciate it very much that your first post to this forum is already a help contribution.
… translating into German I'm actually at page 26 (Polygon).
Something like evanshultz' comments is helpful.
Most work is reformatting the TEX and dividing into smaller parts.

Oh nooooo! We have worked in parallel . I have just finished the polygon and started with the slot. So I stop here and continue with the constraints.

Would you mind having a look? The more interesting part for Abdullah would come with the constraints part.
The block constraint could be completed with the information about that any previous contraint on the blocked curve is ignored at solver level, so a big warning it can lead to problems if it is a dimensional constraint.
I would refer to "curve", as a bspline is neither an arc nor a segment, and can be blocked. Maybe mention its artistic value and its inability to create "exact" geometry (maybe unless one drafts with the snap to grid and then blocks... I actually never tried this, it may be the dream of an AutoCAD user trying to use FC )
I think you have done a great work. I will try to continue to make sure you never actually end it

Thanks for the comments - and the flowers, as we say overhere. I am currently translating to german and when I come to the block constraint I will change it before translating.

I must add that I learnt that you can use the symmetry constraint with reference to a line in any order. I have always done it by selecting the line the last, and it is always in the middle, so it is much more ergonomic to select when passing by
