Question

Catch to construction geo intersection not working

I'm having a terrible time trying to catch to construction geometry. No 3D parts involved yet; I'm laying out the initial profile on WP1. I'm trying to overdraw a horizontal construction line to its intersection with a construction circle, and Catch doesn't seem to recognize the intersection, even when I limit Catch to Intersection. It insists that a point a few thousandths of an inch beyond the intersection is the right place to catch to. Everything else seems to work nicely. What am I missing? Any ideas?

    Hello,

    this most likely is a visualization effect and can be enhanced by either increasing the 2D representation (slider in settings)

    or by splitting the big circle close to the horizontal line. Then you will see that the snap point does fit your circle.

    A detailed description, including pictures was sent while the system was in maintenance mode.

    Cheers
