Add an perpendicular constraint to a sketch

Learn how to use the Perpendicular command to constrain two objects in a sketch so that they lie perpendicular (at a 90-degree angle) to each other in Fusion.

Note: The constraint commands are only available in the Sketch contextual tab as you edit a sketch.
  1. Click Sketch > Constraints > Perpendicular perpendicular icon.

    The Perpendicular constraint icon displays next to the cursor in the canvas.

  2. In the canvas, select the sketch geometry you want to constrain.

The sketch geometry snaps into perpendicular alignment. A constraint badge displays next to the constrained geometry in the canvas, indicating that the geometry is constrained to remain perpendicular to each other.
