Re: Fully defined sketch, multiple solutions

As a side note, the culprit for flipping is the equals constraints, because they do not care about direction. Replacing them with length/height constraints, which do care about direction, solves the flipping:

Re: TechDraw: How do I add dimensioning to rounded corners the elegant way?

I would just dimension side to side (below), top to bottom (right) and a note with 4x (radius)

Not very nice to demand a feature :)

Anyway, length and height constraint in one tool already exist: (also distance, angle, radius and diameter)

Re: Sketcher: distance constraint doesn't work properly

Can confirm. Works as expected on an older version (35024):

Re: New Sketcher Toolbar. A bit rough at first

No matter how I tried, I couldn’t get used to the behavior of the “automatic” tools. I set up a custom panel for myself (it’s just a blessing to have such an opportunity). You can change from a single dimension tool to show all dimensional constraint tools in the sketcher preferences: Screenshot fr...

Re: Feature Request: Relative coordinates between two points could be easily implemented(: No more flipping sketches!)

And again, the flipping is caused by the equals constraint, not by the hor/ver distance constraints. Replace equal with a vertical constraint and flipping does not occur: not fipping.png This leads me to think Jolbas is right, that horizontal and vertical distance constraints (thus also lock) alrea...
