2 Move the cursor to the start point of the profile and click when the
coincident constraint symbol is displayed.
3 In the graphics background, right-click, and select Done, and then
right-click and select Finish Sketch.
The sketch is completed. Do not save the file.
Drag Sketch Geometry
After you create sketch geometry, and while it is unconstrained or
underconstrained, you can drag it to resize it.
Tips for Sketching
■ Start a line by dragging off a circle or an arc.
Drag radially for a perpendicular line or drag tangentially for a tangent
line.
■ Start a line by dragging off the interior (not the endpoints) of another line
and drag in a perpendicular direction.
The new line is constrained perpendicular to the existing line.
■ Create an arc by dragging off the end of a line.
Return the pointer to the endpoint of the line to change the direction of
an arc.
■ Start a spline tangent to a line by dragging off the line.
Select the endpoint of a line, and then drag it in the direction of tangency
to end a spline tangent to a line.
■ Create coincident constraints.
