Creating complex shapes: Motorcycle Cover Design part 2 | Shapr3D Basics

Thanks for returning for part two of the  cover. We'll get started right away placing   some dimensions on our sketches from the previous  video. Let's put a dimension on this circle. There   is no explicit dimension tool. Simply selecting  a sketch element will cause a dimension to be   displayed. I'm going to use four inches. I'll just  select on the dimension box and type in the number   four. on this second circle. I'll do the same  thing. Click here and use eight inches. Next, I   want to get these circles aligned to one another.  So I'm going to sketch another line and I'm going   to start this line at the center of one circle. So  I'll click and click. To stop sketching the line,   I'll hit the right mouse button or escape. Now  select the line. and we want to convert it to a   construction line. So we'll click on this button.  And next, we also want to make it a horizontal   line, but you can see that it's slightly more  vertical than horizontal. So if I click on this,   it's going to snap to the vertical. To help myself  out here, I'll click the center of the circle and   drag it up slightly, reselect the line, and click  on the horizontal vertical button. to snap that   into place. Now I can drag the circle as long  as it's on a line that's horizontal from the   origin. Next, I need to connect the circles with  a couple of lines. Click on the line tool again,   draw a line, click, right click or escape to  get rid of that line and start another line down   here. Click, click. right-click. Now you notice  that these lines are not tangent at the ends, but they do have this symbol which if I click  on this down at the bottom it says that's a   coincident constraint. So the end of the line  touches the circle.
