Sketcher ConstrainDistanceY/sv

Description
Fixes the vertical distance between 2 points or line ends. If only one point is selected, the distance is set to the sketch origin.



Usage

 * 1) Pick one or two points or one line.
 * 2) Invoke the command several ways:

Note: the constraint tool can also be started with no prior selection, but will require selection of two points or one line. To set the distance to the origin, the sketch origin point needs to be selected as well. By default the command will be in continue mode to create new constraints; press the right mouse button or once to quit the command.
