GcCoincident

Works with Bricscad (Windows) Classic, Pro and Platinum, Bricscad (Linux) Classic, Pro and Platinum

Applies a coincident geometrical constraint to two points or constrains a point to an entity.

This command is equivalent to the Coincident option of the GEOMCONSTRAINT command.

Accessing the Command

command bar: gccoincident

menu bar: Parametric | 2D Constraints | Coincident

toolbar: 2D Constraints |

: gccoincident

Prompts you in the command bar:

Select first point or [Entity/Autoconstrain] <Entity>: (select a point on an entity or press Enter, then select an entity.)

Select point or [Multiple]: (select a point or type M to select multiple points)

Select second point or [Entity] <Entity>: (select a point on an entity or press Enter, then select an entity.)

Command Options

Option	Description
Select first point	Snap to a valid constraint point on an entity.
Select second point	Snap to a valid constraint point on an entity. The second point is moved to coincide with the first point.

Entity	Select a valid constraint entity.
Select point	Snap to a valid constraint point on an entity. The selected point is placed on the selected entity.
Multiple	Subsequently snap to a valid constraint point on multiple entities. Right click to stop selecting points. The selected points are placed on the selected entity.

Select first point	Snap to a valid constraint point on an entity.
Entity	Select a valid constraint entity. The selected entity is moved to the selected point.

Autoconstrain	Select multiple entities. Coincident constraints are applied to coincident unconstraint points of the entities in the selection set. The number of constraints applied displays in the command bar.
