the display shown in Figure 3.8.
FIGURE 3.8 Showing the degrees of freedom of the
sketch can help you understand where to add constraints.
This will display bold, red arrows showing how elements of the
sketch can still be moved with a simple click and drag. As you apply
constraints, these degrees of freedom will disappear. On the right
end of the status bar, you can see how many constraints need to be
added to have a fully constrained part.
