Work with dimensional constraints in your drawings

- [Instructor] Welcome to another AutoCAD Tip and Trick. Now this particular tips and tricks video follows that theme of the constraints available to you in AutoCAD. So we've got a new drawing for you, it's called Clamp_CONTRAINTS3.dwg. Don't confuse it with other drawings in the library that revolve around the other constraints tips and tricks videos, okay? So you can download it from the library to follow along with the video, as usual. Now in this particular drawing there are already some geometric constraints, but we're going to be looking at dimensional constraints in this video. So you can see at the moment there's my geometric constraints in the drawing. Now, the good things about these constraints, whether they're geometric or whether they're dimensional, is they can be hidden. So we don't actually need to see any of these geometric constraints. If they're not on the drawing, like this, if you want to switch them on their geometrics, so you click on Show All in the Geometric…
