Sketcher Constraint Horizontal

Description

Creates a vertical constraint to the selected lines or polyline elements. As of version 0.17 and above it can also constrain vertices vertically. More than one object can be selected.

Usage

Select the lines or vertices to be constrained vertically
To invoke the vertical constraint command:
- Press the Constrain vertical.
- Use the V keyboard shortcut
- Use the Sketch → Sketcher constraints → Constrain vertically entry in the Sketch dropdown menu
Alternatively, the tool can be started without prior selection, and it will expect a selection; but only lines will be selectable.
Right-click or press Esc once, to exit the tool.
