Hi.

I cannot find any resolution to this problem anywhere, and maybe someone here has a tip. All I want to do is draw a bunch of squares of equal size in Sketcher, using the Center Rectangle method. I have a bunch of centerlines set up so that I can snap each square to the center of where a square is supposed to go. But the squares end up snapping to dimensions that don't exist.

For instance, if I draw one square and constrain it to equal length sides and check that it is the correct size, then, if I start drawing more and more squares of the same size, they don't always END UP the same size even though I get the blue and red "L" symbols. Often, the squares try to snap to lengths that don't exist and they end up all wrong. I have tried limiting the amount of constraints to use, but have not found a combination that is not a headache. Also, since I am using the Center Rectangle method, I would think that Creo would understand that the square is symmetrical about the centerpoint. But Creo still insists on giving me 4 dimensions...side lengths, and distance of two of the sides from the centerpoint. Sometimes I get 8 dimensions because Creo sees each corner point of the square as independent of the others. Clearly, this has to do with what constraints I choose to use. But no combinations of constraints seem to be the headache-free, magic bullet.

The best solution I have found so far is to use the constraints:
Line up horizontally
Line up vertically
Midpoint

But then I have to supply separate dimensions for width and height of each square, which really defeats the purpose of equal-length constraints.
