  • Patent number: 7613594
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system of computer aided design of a product comprising a set of objects (11-51). The invention system and method identify (S10) constraints (1121-4151) linking objects (11,51) of said set of objects. Each of the identified constraints is oriented from a first object to a second object so as to ensure, upon solving (S90) the constraints, that the first object is not moved provided that all other of said constraints are solved. The invention system and method further test whether said constraints can be solved upon modifying one oriented constraint (4151) amongst the identified constraints. The invention system/method returns a suggestion (110) for modifying said one oriented constraint (4151).

  • Publication number: 20080172208
    Abstract: The invention system and method of computer aided design of a product having a set of objects, identifies constraints linking objects of said set of objects. Each of the constraints is oriented from a first object to a second object so as to ensure, upon solving the constraints, that the first object is not moved provided that all other of said constraints are solved. The invention further modifies the orientation of one of the constraints, upon user action.
