Wild fire 5.

Constraints are logical operations that are performed on the selected geometry to make it more accurate in defining its position and size with respect to the other geometry.
Constraint means restriction or Boundation.

1> Under constrained 2> Fully constrained 3> Over constrained

The working directory is designated location for opening and saving files.
Go to file> manage session > select working directory Specify the path where you have to store your files of pro-e.

Go to file New Start with Part and select (mmns) part. We have to set units perfectly because we have to visualize the model and mass properties.

Click on the blue icon of the sketch and set the sketch plane as Front reference as Right orientation as Top

Two types of sketch are in Pro-E.

Internal sketch
External sketch The sketch is saved with a .sec file extension. The part is saved with a .prt file extension.

Weak dimensions and weak constraints are temporary dimensions or constraints that appear in light blue colour. These are automatically applied to the sketch when it is drawn using the Intent Manager. They are removed from the sketch without any confirmation from the user.
The weak dimensions or the weak constraints should be changed to strong dimensions or constraints if they seem to be useful for the sketch.

Strong dimensions and strong constraints appear in dark blue colour. These dimensions and constraints are not removed automatically. All dimensions added manually to a sketch are strong dimensions .
