This tool removes axis alignments ([[File:Sketcher_ConstrainHorizontal.svg|16px]] [[Sketcher_ConstrainHorizontal|Horizontal]], [[File:Sketcher_ConstrainVertical.svg|16px]] [[Sketcher_ConstrainVertical|Vertical]] constraints) from the selected elements by trying to preserve the constraint relationship.
The [[Image:Sketcher_RemoveAxesAlignment.svg|24px]] [[Sketcher_RemoveAxesAlignment|Sketcher RemoveAxesAlignment]] tool removes the axes alignment of selected edges by replacing [[Sketcher_ConstrainHorizontal|Horizontal]] and [[Sketcher_ConstrainVertical|Vertical]] constraints with [[Sketcher_ConstrainParallel|Parallel]] and [[Sketcher_ConstrainPerpendicular|Perpendicular]] constraints. The edges can then be rotated without losing their orthogonal relationship.

# Select geometry with axis alignments, for example a rectangle.
# Select two or more edges with Horizontal or Vertical constraints, for example a [[Sketcher_CreateRectangle|rectangle]].
# Press the [[File:Sketcher_RemoveAxesAlignment.svg|24px]] '''Remove Axes Alignment''' toolbar button.
# There are several ways to invoke the tool:
#* Press the {{Button|[[Image:Sketcher_RemoveAxesAlignment.svg|16px]] [[Sketcher_RemoveAxesAlignment|Remove axes alignment]]}} button.
#* Select the {{MenuCommand|Sketch → Sketcher tools → [[Image:Sketcher_RemoveAxesAlignment.svg|16px]] Remove axes alignment}} option from the menu.
#* Use the keyboard shortcut: {{KEY|Z}} then {{KEY|R}}.


==Example== <!--T:11-->
As result the (horizontal, vertical constraints) will be removed. In the example of a rectangle, it stays a rectangle but becomes rotatable.

Description

The Sketcher RemoveAxesAlignment tool removes the axes alignment of selected edges by replacing Horizontal and Vertical constraints with Parallel and Perpendicular constraints. The edges can then be rotated without losing their orthogonal relationship.

Usage

  1. Select two or more edges with Horizontal or Vertical constraints, for example a rectangle.
  2. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
    • Press the Remove axes alignment button.
    • Select the Sketch → Sketcher tools → Remove axes alignment option from the menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Z then R.

Example

A selected rectangle with horizontal and vertical constraints.

The rectangle after using the tool.
