Description

Fixes the vertical distance between 2 points or line ends. If only one item is selected, the distance is set to the origin.

Usage

  1. Pick one or two points.
  2. Press the Constrain vertical distance button.

Note: the constraint tool can also be started with no prior selection, but will require selection of two points. To set the distance to the origin, the sketch origin point needs to be selected as well. By default the command will be in continue mode to create new constraints; press the right mouse button or ESC once to quit the command.
