[@stefanf6495]

even for the most basic concepts, I still learn something new every time I watch one of your videos.

[@ShawneeUnion]

I was having trouble deleting the constraints for the circle @5:44, it would delete the entire sketch. If you select the constraint and right click you can select 'Delete Coincident' from the menu

[@freestyla981]

is there some way to prevent this behavior? Why does it seem to work for him with just the delete key?

[@Singingmute]

Thank you!

[@jeffbrazill764]

I'm not getting this "Delete Coincident" from the menu when right-clicking on the constraint.

[@1powelrainbow2]

Perfect as always Kevin! I've gotten quite a bit on my f360 journey but embarrassingly my Achilles heel are the darn constraints so need to tackle them from now on

[@gkkent]

As always TOP QUALITY. You are an awesome teacher!! Thank you so much for this!!

[@fortifor5410]

Very informative! Looking forward to further tutorials. Thank you sir!

[@freedom_aint_free]

I didn't know about the dangerous of sketch mirroring, which until now I've used extensively ! Note taken.

[@footballtv8031]

Appreciate your motivation to teach us!

[@kwaaaa]

Excellently presented fundamentals.

[@CelticOneDesign]

Fusion 360 power is in sketches, parameters and the time line. The time line capabilty is really a life safer.

[@subpixel2234]

Great video Kevin! You covered several things that have been holding me back on using Fusion 360 efficiently.

[@ProductDesignOnline]

Glad to hear that. Happy learning! :)

[@SwissplWatches]

for years I've been doing two things wrong and you just solved them. thank you!

[@ProductDesignOnline]

Happy learning and thanks for watching! :)

[@kylemcclure3637]

If you are having trouble finding seeing the constraints @5:44, make sure that you "unfix" the circle portion of the sketch via the lock icon in the constraints section.

[@DaveBoatBuilder]

This is a masterclass

[@Ronkootje]

Great lesson, I still struggle to get a spline line fully divined. Would be great if you could make one about that. Ron

[@anjcancaida8132]

I can't move the circle after deleting the same constraint you selected. I've already tried deleting any of the constraints but nothing happened.

[@gaspassman]

This is a great series, and you do a great job with it, but if I'm being honest, this episode is a bit of a let down. didn't get to see anything new created, and sort of just rehashing what we learned earlier in the series. eagerly awaiting next episode.

[@IRacingStig]

Why do my sketch dimensions not maintain just outside the shapes boundaries? When I resize the square in this video for example, my left constraint (the 100, 150, 200 etc), the physical location of that dimension doesn't move with the shape update. So it's sometimes inside the shape, if I go from 100 to 200. Or, it could be way off to the left and outside normal viewing area when I go from 200 back to 100. Having the hardest time finding how to make it relative to the outer edge of the object.

[@MnmnMnmqn]

Do you know when day 17 will be posted?

[@carbonarne675]

is there an option to learn the advaced stuff? i do boatbuilding so my shapes are ralatively complicated and i would like to get proper training one to one.

[@ProductDesignOnline]

I do offer 1 on 1 tutoring. More here: productdesignonline.com/1-on-1-fusion-360-sessions/ However, I am booked up for the next few months.

[@carbonarne675]

@@ProductDesignOnline that looks perfect. I'll prep and send request

[@leewade9798]

Great video, Thank you! Removing that constraint for the circle kept getting me, because for me it was the third symbol from the center. Is there is an easier way to identify which coincident constraint is selected, when there are a few coincidents on the same spot?

[@ProductDesignOnline]

I believe they're always listed in the order they're created, from left to right. You can also select the constraint and it will highlight the geometry. Sometimes that isn't helpful if two or three of them are only doing a sketch point though.

[@leewade9798]

@@ProductDesignOnlineThank you

[@Thisdudechannel]

Could you please do more videos of breaking down constraints?

[@ProductDesignOnline]

The next lesson will show how to use each constraint type. Will try to do more as well 😃

[@sombolestani]

Hi Kevin, Thanks for the great tutorials. I've been following the instructions step by step, but I'm having trouble with the coincident constraints not showing up when I click on the circle. Additionally, I'm unable to move the circle as demonstrated in the tutorial. Could you please assist me with identifying the issue? Thanks in advance for your help.

[@ProductDesignOnline]

Can you capture sma screen recording and share the link to it? That sort of thing is hard to troubleshoot without seeing it. 😎

[@ivansimeonov9621]

I had the same problem. I simply reverted to the step before removing the constraint, remove it again and then with "right click" and selecting "Move/copy" I was able to move the circle.

[@jeffbrazill764]

@2:14 - when trying to replicate the Equal Constraint step, getting a "Failed to solve. Please try revising dimensions or constraints." Any suggestions?

[@ProductDesignOnline]

There is likely another constraint that was automatically applied. Double-check that you don't have any other constraints that would restrict it from making the sides equal in length. If you can share your file, I can take a look.

[@scottyknows1566]

@5:28 why does it seem like the listed 4 constraints seem to pop up randomly when trying to select the circle? i press the outer circle and the center point. cant seem to get it to pop up every time though 🧐 Selecting the outside of the circle and then hovering over the center point seems to be the way.

[@dwarfda]

I struggled to have them appear at all, after a while i noticed i wasn't in the sketch editing context.

[@insanity_squirrel]

Omg this took me like 20 mins! Was clicking like mad trying to make them appear! Finally got it by finishing the sketch and reopening and clicking just off centre of the middle circle.

The original series is still available. I was very transparent that this remake one was not going to be released as fast as I prioritize supporting my students, etc. You can support the channel here: buymeacoffee.com/pdo

where is the original series? @@ProductDesignOnline
