Which types of constraints can be applied in the Sketch environment of Solid Edge?

In the Sketch environment of Solid Edge, geometric constraints play a fundamental role in defining relationships between sketch entities. These constraints include options like parallelism, tangency, perpendicularity, and symmetry. By applying geometric constraints, you can control the shape and orientation of your sketch without needing to specify exact measurements, allowing for more flexible design adjustments.

Numerical constraints refer to the assignment of specific values to dimensions, while dimensional constraints are indeed a subset of these, used exclusively for specifying sizes and distances. However, neither of these encompasses the broader concept of geometric constraints that also include relational aspects. Color constraints do not pertain to the structural or dimensional aspects of a sketch but might influence the aesthetics of the design.

Focusing on geometric constraints allows for a more versatile and interconnected design process, enabling you to create sketches that adapt dynamically as you adjust other elements. Thus, geometric constraints are integral to achieving precision and functionality in your modeling tasks within Solid Edge.
