What is a Constraint?What is a Constraint?A Constraint is a limitation or
restriction. (This is the same as in the design
process, so why do we need to learn it again for Inventor?)
![Page 5: Getting Started With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013 Phase 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051018/56649c7e5503460f94933f2d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
There are specific types of There are specific types of constraints in Inventor. constraints in Inventor. These constraints are actually
functions that allow you to limit what lines and shapes in your drawing can
and can not do. They let you give your drawing “rules.”

Geometric ConstraintsGeometric Constraints
Geometric Constraints are restrictions applied to geometric entities; for
example horizontal, parallel, perpendicular, tangent and vertical.

HorizontalHorizontalHorizontal means Parallel to the X
axis.The blue line below is horizontal.
![Page 9: Getting Started With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013 Phase 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051018/56649c7e5503460f94933f2d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
This section contains the constraints
that Inventor offers to
make your drawings
easier and more exact.
This button is used to make
sure that a line is
perfectly horizontal.Draw this button on
your Vocab Sheet Next
to “Horizontal”.
![Page 10: Getting Started With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013 Phase 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051018/56649c7e5503460f94933f2d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Step 1- Draw a Diagonal line anywhere on your screen.
Step 2- Press ESC
Step 3- Click on the diagonal line
with your mouse.
Step 4- Click on the “Horizontal”
Constraint Button.

ParallelParallelParallel refers to lines, planes or
surfaces side by side and having the same distance continually between them. (If they ran on forever, they
would never cross each other!)The top line and the bottom line of this rectangle are parallel to each other. Are the two side lines parallel to each other as
well?
![Page 12: Getting Started With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013 Phase 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051018/56649c7e5503460f94933f2d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Step 1- Draw two lines on
your screen that are going in
different directions.
Step 2- Press ESC
Step 3- This is the parallel constraint
button. Draw the symbol next to “Parallel” on
your vocab sheet. Then
click on it.
Step 4- Click on one of your lines, then the
other. What happens?

• Draw another diagonal line. • Press ESC .• Use your mouse to grab one end
of the diagonal line and move it around.
• Now use your mouse to grab the end of the line you made horizontal.
• Does it move?

PerpendicularPerpendicularPerpendicular means at an angle of 90 degrees to a given line, plane or
surface.The lines below are perpendicular.

![Page 17: Getting Started With Autodesk Inventor Professional 2013 Phase 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051018/56649c7e5503460f94933f2d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Try to move these lines around and see
what happens.

Challenge!!!Challenge!!!• Start a new 2D sketch.• You can draw anything you want, but in your
drawing you must use each of the constraints we have gone over at least once.
• It has to be a picture of something; not just random lines and shapes.
• Save it in your 3D folder as “Constraints.”• Drop box it to the Assignment “Constraints-
Inventor Part.”
