Catia equal dimension constrain 2

[CAD2015]

Hi,

Is it possible to constrain all sides of the four parallelograms (making them all equal) in one move only?
I am looking at the "Constrain Definition" box, but it doesn't have "equal" option..........
I could give dimension to each one and then edit formula, but I was thinking that it would be another way faster........

Draw all four parallelograms. Select all elements by click and drag. In Property Manager under Add Relations, click the equal button. All sides of all parallelograms become equal length. Place or change a dimension on any line. They will all change to equal that one.

You are posting in a SolidWorks forum but I think you are asking about Catia. If not see above, if so read on. In Catia I would create a parameter then have every dimension reference this one parameter. That way you can modify the sizes of all dimensions while outside of the sketch. I hope this helps.

I apologies, I posted my thread on SolidWorks forum, instead of Catia’s.......
Thank you all for reply!

Jboggs.......
I am about to follow your advice: Where is In Property Manager (in order to get to Add Relations)?
I do not know how to get there..........

I thought you were saying you knew how to do it in Catia but not in Solidworks. My answer only applies to SW.

I anticipated this answer.......!
Thanks, anyway!
Most of my experience is in Unigraphics.
Sometimes, I take taskes in Catia.
As far as SW, I am just a beginner. Never had a job related assignment in SW.
