tzframpton Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 I'm testing out a simple Block Table in the Dynamic Block editor and when I go to save the Block, the following alert pops up. Is there a way to "test" the Block to check all the necessary constraints? Or am I just suppose to go about this with good 'ol fashioned trial and error? Seems the block is working just fine so is the alert just a moot point? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! - Tannar Quote
ReMark Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Makes one wonder how many constraints are really necessary to draw a rectangle. Do you have to add a constraint to each corner telling AutoCAD they must be perpendicular? I wonder too if you drew a dynamic block of a circle and indicated radius or diameter whether AutoCAD would tell you it wasn't fully constrained either. Quote
tzframpton Posted November 25, 2013 Author Posted November 25, 2013 Constraints are necessary when you're dynamically flexing the rectangle. If not, it'll go all trapezoidy on you real quick. Bump for anyone else who might run across this thread. Quote
ReMark Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Maybe in all of its wisdom AutoCAD, for whatever reason, expects to see perpendicular constraints for the rectangle to be "fully" constrained. Quote
tzframpton Posted November 25, 2013 Author Posted November 25, 2013 Attached is the completed Block so far. Feel free to fiddle around with it. Even though it gives me the error, the block seems to be functioning just fine. Carrier 50TC.dwg Quote
