Hello,
I just realized that the two thing do more or less the same thing, it's really just a matter of what you select. Two points --> Constrain coincident, Point and something else --> Constrain Point onto object.
Is there a reason why the two things shouldn't be put together?

There's already a discussion going about this somewhere. Sorry I don't have it ready at hand right now.
Please try to search previous topics before posting.

https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=71793 and there was another thread in the past that also got messy, linked more than once there I think. Openbrain made a PR for combining these constraints but might have lost interest on the subject: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/7478

Give it a try with using just one (either) of these "more or less the same thing", and report back.pathfinder wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 9:23 pm I just realized that the two thing do more or less the same thing
If they are really the same thing then either should work for all your needs.

Yeah okay, that was bad phrasing on my part. What I meant to say was that they are similar enough that you can put them together. Kinda like the radius and diameter thing. Make it a drop down and add an autodetect option.
