Stupid Selection Question or problem?

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by Aron Bacs, Jr., Feb 22, 2005.

  1. Hi,

    Somehow when I try to drag the edge of a circle (that is currently
    un-dimensioned) it moves the entire circle instead of changing its size
    (like it used to... before I upgraded from 2005 sp0.1 to sp1.1). And
    depending on if it is related to some other sketch item, SolidWorks may warn
    me (Move entities have constraints which involve other entities...). But
    either way, selecting the edge of the circle no longer changes its size.

    Did some setting get changed?

    I used to be able to sketch a circle, move the circle (by selecting the
    center point and dragging) & change its diameter by selecting an edge and
    dragging... what happened?

    Thanks,

    Aron

  2. I just tried it here and it works just fine. SP1.1 I just opened a new
    part, opened a sketch, inserted a circle, and pulled on the outside to
    change its diameter.

  3. In fact, if you drag it REAL fast back and forth, you get multiple circles!

    Hi Aron,

    Make sure you have "No Solve Move" turned off.

    Tools -> Sketch Settings -> No Solve Move
