Hello, for making measurements in parts and in assemblies, for example the axial distance between cyclindrial surfaces or the distance between parallel planar surfaces, or parallel edges, I created a modification which displays various measurements in the bottom bar, based on the items currently sel...

Assembly3 uses SolveSpace as constraint solver. It does not allow redundant constraints, which sometimes complicates the assembly process. SolveSpace seems to have a flag for allowing redundant constraints. They introduced it a long time ago, this change is also present in the realthunder fork of So...
