CATCH Information
Design Intent Capture also considers CATCH information when determining which constraints to generate. With CoPilot enabled the ability to catch to tangencies, etc. is much easier.
For example, assume CoPilot is enabled and LINE TWO_PTS is invoked. If the endpoints of the line are picked so that they are approximately tangent to two arcs, then two tangent constraints will be created.

Because different constraints are generated based on construction technique and CATCH information only advanced users should enable Design Intent Capture when macro files are being created or input.
