Comments

• THIS APAR IS CONSIDERED AS A SUGGESTION FOR IMPROVEMENT FOR
  CATIA.
  PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT DEPARTMENT IN ORDER TO OPEN A
  REQUIREMENT FORM.
  
   INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS:
   Distance constraints flip to wrong side during update in
   Sketcher.
   .
   In mos t of cases the incident has been corrected from V5R8GA.
   The fi x has been versionned to avoid regression(Quality plan)
     ===> To activate this fix it is necessary to recreate the
     ===> constraint: then problem does not occur any more.
    .
  In some other cases exists a lost of chirality of Use Edge :
  For instance it might happen with offset constraint between
  a use Edge and a sketcher element.
  This is what occurs in this problem.
    SUG closure : Use Edgde has to be upgraded.
   .
   ANSWER AND POSSIBLE BY-PASS:
  To stabilize once for all behaviour of sketch, delete the
  Offset.534,recreate a distance constraint similar to
   Offset.534 but not between lines, between up end points
  of the 2 lines.
   Then create an Angle constraint between 2 segments of
  use edge broken line and put a formula to pilot the previous
  created offset.
   With that profiles are no longer overlaped when changing
   Motif parameter.
