When
you edit the CustomBlocks, you can use Dimensional Constraints. This
lets you control the distance, length, angle, and radius of entities. Dimensional
Constraints can also constrain the distances and angles between geometric entities or
points on entities.
For example,
if you
design a layout for a circuit board,
you
must position electronic components at specific locations. It is important to maintain
precise distances and proportions between components, while allowing for flexibility in
their individual sizes.
You
can replicate it in different parts of the drawing using it inside a
CustomBlock.
You can edit dynamic blocks created in AutoCAD that use
Dimensional Constraints. This transforms the Block into a CustomBlock in DraftSight. The
conversion process recognizes Dimensional Constraints for precise editing within
CustomBlocks.
To
use
Dimensional Constraints for
CustomBlocks:
Do the following:
- On the ribbon, click .
- On the menu, click .
- Enter EDITBLOCK in the
command window.
