The [[Image:Sketcher_ConstrainRadius.svg|24px]] [[Sketcher_ConstrainRadius|Sketcher ConstrainRadius]] tool fixes the radius of circles, arcs and [[Sketcher_CreateBSpline#Notes|B-spline weight circles]]. |
|||
This constraint constrains the value of the radius of a circle or arc to have a specific value. If more than one circle or arc is selected before launching the command : |
|||
* If the constrain is applied in 'Reference' mode, a new reference constrain is added to each object separately according above rules |
|||
* If the constrain is applied in 'Normal' (driving) mode, following rules are applied |
|||
** A reference constrain is applied separately on each object which is an external geometry |
|||
** {{Button|[[File:Sketcher_ConstrainEqual.svg|16px]] [[Sketcher_ConstrainEqual|Equal constrains]]}} are applied sequentially between all real/construction geometry objects and a dimensional constrain is applied to the first selected object according above rules |
|||
NB : B-spline poles can't be mixed with other object type in the selection |

Description
The Sketcher ConstrainRadius tool fixes the radius of circles, arcs and B-spline weight circles.
Usage
See also: Drawing aids.
Continue mode
- Make sure there is no selection.
- There are several ways to invoke the tool:
- introduced in version 0.22: If the Dimensioning constraints preference is set to
Single tool
(default): press the down arrow to the right of the button and select the Constrain radius option from the dropdown. - If this preference has a different value (and in version 0.21 and below): press the Constrain radius button.
- Select the Sketch → Sketcher constraints → Constrain radius option from the menu.
- introduced in version 0.22: Right-click in the 3D view and select the Dimension → Constrain radius option from the context menu.
- Use the keyboard shortcut: K then R.
- introduced in version 0.22: If the Dimensioning constraints preference is set to
- For further steps see Sketcher ConstrainRadiam.
Run-once mode
Scripting
Sketch.addConstraint(Sketcher.Constraint('Radius', ArcOrCircle, App.Units.Quantity('123.0 mm')))
The Sketcher scripting page explains the values which can be used for ArcOrCircle
, and contains further examples on how to create constraints from Python scripts.
