Drawing a line in Inventor 2010 in sketch mode then dragging mouse to create an arc, used to work, but somehow has lost the plot! Is there a work around like a setting etc I may have altered.

Recommended for you

Draw a line, hover over the end until the dot goes grey, then click and drag. It should work even if you have constraint inference off.

Maybe just check you have all service packs then. It should be working.
 
Make sure you have not turned off Coincident Constraints or fooled with Constraint Persistence.

Constrain persistence is not required but you are right about coincident constraint, you must have it checked.

RMB, constraint options.
 
Thanks guys, I had the constraints switched off for some reason?
