Sketch problem in NX 7.5
Sketch problem in NX 7.5
(OP)
Hi All,
I have a sketch in NX7.5 which keeps over constraining too quickly when I add contraints. I have tested this by adding a completly seperate line with no inferred contraints, the sketch tells me I need 3 contraints. When I try this with another sketch that is working normally the sketch tells me to add 4 contraints, which is what I would expect.
The sketch giving me problems has a few offset curves, could this be the reason for the unexpected behaviour?
Anyone else come across this or have a fix?
Rich

This is a bit difficult to investigate without an example... Can you upload the partfile ( or create one showing the same behavior )

I understand about the need to have an example, not sure if I can post one due to intellectual property rights reasons.
From memory, when I created the offset curves it told me I only needed 1 constraint (the offset value) this seemed normal to me. I have tried to create another offset curve but could not find the associative box although I did have the inferred contrains toggle button selected.
Cheers,
Rich
