Merging coincident points in a sketch?

Merging coincident points in a sketch?

Merging coincident points in a sketch?

(OP)
Hi

I'm trying to extrude a sketch but keep getting the following error,

"The highlighted entity contains points that are coincident but not merged"

For the life of me I cannot find out how to merge the points in the sketch.

Thanks

RE: Merging coincident points in a sketch?

Quite often all that's needed is to extend the lines or arcs beyond their intersection, and then trim back.

Thanks CorBlimeyLimey.

I managed to fix it but now cant remember what I clicked to make it happen :)

RE: Merging coincident points in a sketch?

Or you can just use the corner trim option or Smart Trim each entity to the other. Another option to consider is the Fully Define Sketch Icon. With Fully Define Sketch you can select the Coincident or All constraints/relations and hit the Check Mark or apply to Detect and Add any missing relations
