Hello,
I a CatPart sketch, I am having a hard time just to put tangency constraints between the end points of multiple points spline and arcs at both ends. I tried many ways ( different ordering of constraints) but the sketch still turns red. There are only minimum constraints without equations.
Any suggestions.

Thanks

Hi,

Make sure you have turned off Geometrical and Dimensional constraints when creating the sketch...because they create auto-constraints like parallelism, vertical, horizontal..etc which we may not need. And then go about constraining it.

It will be better if you can attach the image of the sketch to get the clear picture.

Regards,
Jayant
