SOLVED - Not a Glitch in F360 sketch

So I made a center square, removed the perpendicular constraint and grabbed the blue dot and morphed this thing all over the place. The right lower point remained fixed.

Sorry…I didn’t realize we were doing this together…

Nope

Not a paralellagramamam.

Diamond. 4 equal sides and all 90* angles. Sides are all 45* off of X and Y

Now what do I do?

When I remove the perpendicular restraint, and grab a corner, as soon as I stop they add it again.

Nope. No sir

Hopefully someone else will chime in that hasn’t updated theirs in a while. Right now I’m kind of busy

Wow! You got it already!
Now if I close the sketch and select the box and pick [m] for move, I get this:

Very nice. How did you get it in the trailer?

You may have thought I was just toying with you but I think I figured it out. You have to have “3D Sketch” checked in your Sketch Palette for it to come up:
Voila:

This is kind of cool. When it is a flat plane, there is nothing 3D about it but if you turn the page at an angle view you see what happens:

I may be missing something in this thread but can use the Polygon Tool to make a diamond shape?

A polygon with 4 four sides constrained to the vertical access


If you set up some construction geometry to constrain the 4 sided polygon to then you should be able to quickly set it to any angle.

note the polygon icon in the middle of the square( diamond) this is what is applying some hidden constraints to the geometry

Thanks @TinWhisperer (good to see you again!)- @ChelanJim nailed what I was looking for.

Now I am wondering when that got turned off. I have always had 3D sketch turned on.

Perhaps the update did it. It was totally a fluke that I found that. I go back and forth turning it on and off.

Updating Fusion can be frustrating. I have had it change preferences one time. The worst thing is you won’t know till it doesn’t work. I’m glad to see the TinMan and Jimmy are up.

Yeah,Windows (Win11) used to be real bad about that. All the privacy preferences would get turned on - READ - Everywhere you checked “NO” to allowing of sending private info, microphone and camera permissions ect…opened it right back up.

How is that precision Matthews lathe treating you?

I bet that top-heavy beauty was a beast to get in that trailer. It sure is pretty. Are you going to name it?
