sketcher subtleties

Hello again



Has anyone noticed a different type of arrow head in sketcher? What does it
mean? Check out this image:







Thanks ,



-Nate

Nathan,
The white filled triangles represent drag handles in sketcher. You can drag the arrow to change the length of the sketch feature.

I see the same thing. I created a reference dimension in the sketch and it doesn't do that.

I thought maybe it was the first pick/second pick but no.

When I converted a real dimension to reference, the arrows changed to just unfilled yellow

It looks like a dimension with 1 white arrow is strong.

A dimension with both arrows white is weak

And a dimension with no white arrows is reference
