Selects the constraints to be inferred and geometry to use.

Selection for Constraint Inference

Select All

Places a check mark in each active check box.

Clear All

Removes all check marks. No constraints are inferred.

Horizontal

The horizontal constraint is inferred.

Vertical

The vertical constraint is inferred.

Parallel

The parallel constraint is inferred to scoped geometry.

Perpendicular

The perpendicular constraint is inferred to scoped geometry..

Intersection

The coincident constraint is inferred at the intersection of scoped curves.

Midpoint

The coincident constraint is inferred at the midpoint of scoped lines.

On Curve

The coincident constraint is inferred on scoped curves.

Tangent

The tangent constraint is inferred to scoped geometry.

Coincident

The coincident constraint is inferred to scoped points.

Note: The status of the Constraint Inference command overrides the selections in the Constraint Options dialog box. If Constraint Inference is not selected, all checkboxes in the Options dialog box are unavailable.

Scope for Constraint Inference

All Geometry

Infer constraints to all active sketch geometry.

Select
