Sketcher allows Point on B-Spline but creates malformed constraint

Post by reox »

If I try to manually create point on line constraint using a point and a b-spline curve, I get this error message:

So far so good.

However, if I create a line and add the endpoint to the B-Spline, the constraint is still created but the log gives:

Code: Select all

Sketcher constraint number 18 is malformed!
I think the automatic constraint creation should not allow point on line constraints, if the line is a bspline.
Is this somewhere already reported?

I don't think so. I guess we all had hoped it would come soon.
