A parametric sketch consists of lines, curves, points, and relationships. The relationships control the interaction between the lines, curves, and points. These relationships, called constraints, may also maintain design intent.
You may find it necessary to frequently work with constraints. To make it easier, Autodesk Inventor provides improved sketch constraint management tools.
Autodesk Inventor 2008 adds functionality that enables designers to display the constraints pertaining to window-selected geometry. A filtering mechanism enables designers to specify which constraints are displayed in the graphics area.
Geometry projected from existing geometry is marked with a new reference constraint. The addition of bidirectional cross-highlighting between constraint glyphs and associated geometry has improved designers’ ability to examine constraint relationships.
