After a recent update I have been having a couple of problems but have not seen anyone else mention.
Firstly in part design I used to be able to create a body then a sketch when it comes to selecting the plane in the panel it highlighted that plane in the drawing. This no longer happens although the plane highlights when clicked on directly and selects in the panel. This is still the case when tried in 0.18/
Secondly in a sketch if I dimension something and name it I could easily reference it in another dimension. In the dimension box I type '=C' and it used to
show the possible constraints. I now have to type the full constraint exactly before it finds it. Is this Something I have started doing wrong or could have changed a setting somewhere? Thanks in anticipation of help

There are more modes now; you find them in Menu->View->TreeView actionsmasterchippy wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2019 9:14 pm Firstly in part design I used to be able to create a body then a sketch when it comes to selecting the plane in the panel it highlighted that plane in the drawing.
