Scripting

The constraint can be created from macros and from the Python console by using the following command:

Sketch.addConstraint(Sketcher.Constraint('PointOnObject',LineMoving,PointOfLineMoving,LineFixed))

  • Sketch is a sketch object.
  • LineMoving is the number that designates the line, which contains the point that has to be moved onto the LineFixed (the line which is fixed).
  • PointOfLineMoving is the number of the vertex of line LineMoving, that has to be moved onto the LineFixed.
  • LinedFixed is the number of the line to be affixed onto the point PointOfLineMoving.

The Sketcher scripting page explains how to identify the numbers that designate lines and points.
