Description

Constrain Block blocks a geometric element in place with a single constraint.

It is mainly intended to be used with B-Splines, which can be difficult to fully constrain otherwise.

Usage

  1. Select an element to constrain.
  2. Press the Constrain Block button.

Or press the button first, and then select the elements.
