Hi ST3 users,

Have you got the same problem?
When I extrude a fully constrained sketch, the extrusion operation on pathfinder is considered as not fully constrained.

Thanks for your replies.

I looked up the text files for MP1 and MP2, I don't see anything in there regarding the issue you are seeing.

I tested this on ST3 MP2 and could not reproduce the problem. The pencil icon does not show when I have a fully constrained sketch.

But, by default, the sketch colors do not update. When in the sketch environment, you have to go to the Inspect tab, Evaluate group, and select Relationship Colors. Turn that on and make sure all of your sketch elements turn black. If they don't, that would be the area were the sketch isn't fully constrained.

Hi swertel,

I have also look on the MP text files, and don't see anything.
Regardless, I haven't problem since MP02...

A new thanks to you swertel : concerning the color relationship of the fully constrained sketches ;-)

Thanks
Regards.

Hi all,

Herewith, a screenshot where you can see the pathfinder
with fully constrained sketches, and operations that can't
been constrained.
