If you\u2019re\u2026um efficient (sometimes lazy) like me, traveling half way across the screen to select a command or relationship is too time consuming. Which most likely means you have mastered the use of the keyboard shortcuts and the marking menu<\/A> to speed up your design workflow. Well here is another Quick Tip to speed up your workflow while making sketch relationships.<\/P>

When I started learning CAD software, I was lost in all the buttons\/commands\/features\/toolbars\/environments. I had one professor tell me that if you can\u2019t find something just right click. With Fusion 360, when sketch entities are selected a right click will present you with the sketch relationships right next to your cursor.<\/P>

First, open up a new sketch or edit an old sketch. Select a sketch entity or two, then right click to invoke the menu. This relationship list will only show relationships pertaining to the sketch entities that are selected. For Example, if two circles are selected Fusion 360 will give the options to make them tangent, concentric, equal, or fixed. Most importantly, this will limit your mouse travel to where the sketching is happening. Mouse travel\u2026so exhausting.<\/P>
