HD07939: THE SYMBOL OF COINCIDENCE IS NOT DISPLAYED UNDER DRAWING

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• The symbol of coincidence is not displayed under
  drawing.
  Scenario
  
  1.Select tools-Options-Mechanical Design-
  Drafting
  2.Select Geometory tab and Activate "Constraints
  creation" and " Constraints Display" under setting
  on all of pramater in "Smart Pick" and "Constraints
  types.."
  3.Select "OK" in the Options
  box.
  4.Open a
  new "Drawing"
  5.Click "Create Detected constratints " icon
  and "Show constraints" and activate
  them.
  6.Select "Profile"
  icon
  7.Create a bending line with a vertex.(Please see
  image)
  8.Create a "Circle" has a center which is the top on
  the vertex.
    (Please see
  image)
      At this time , a coincidence constraints is
  created .
  9.But the symbol of the coincidence is not
  displayed although
    the coincidence constraints is
  created.
    If drag the circle , the vertex moves with a center
  of the circle
    and upper and lower lines. It says that a
  coincident is created.
  .
  
  Additional
  information
  At Step.8 , when a pre-symbol of coincidence is
  displayed
  (highlighted both the vertex and upper or lower
  line) ,
  after creating a circle , if drag the circle , the circle
  moves
  with Only the upper or lower line , not both of
  them.
  Why ? Is this
  specification ?
  .
  
  Anyway,
  
  
  The symbol of coincidence should be
  displayed .

Problem conclusion

• THIS MODIFICATION WILL BE INCLUDED IN CATIA DOCUMENTATION DELIV
  ERED WITH CATIA VERSION 5 RELEASE 12 GA LEVEL.

  MODIFICATION:
  --- See \\chir1dsy\HOME\Www\lgkr12
  \DriEnglish\driug.doc\src\driugbt0300.htm for
  correction validation (waiting collect - R12 doc
  releases not restarted yet) ---
  
  You can use Autodetection to automatically create
  detected constraints while creating 2D geometry,
  by activating the Create Detected Constraints
  command in the Tools toolbar. The Show
  Constraints command lets you view the created
  constraints.
  
  In this case, note that if you create 2D geometrical
  elements with a common point, no constraint will
  be detected for this construction point, as it is
  unique. For example, say you create a circle and a
  line starting from the circle center as shown in the
  example below, the circle center point and the line
  end point is actually a single point. This is why no
  coincidence constraint will be created.
