  In previous releases you could edit sketches that are on a drawing sheet. Sometimes customers like to directly sketch on a drawing sheet. Sometimes it is necessary because you can't dimension a particular thing. All the edit commands are now disabled. You can use the trim shortcut which is T but I think these tools should still be enabled as they are still useful in a 2D mode.

  Hello Tim Dukes
  
  This is because you are in constraint-based sketching mode, where this is not possible yet. Please go to SpaceClaim options>advanced> and untick the box 'Enable constraint-based sketching (restart required)' and restart SpaceClaim, this will revert to the older sketching mode, where the edit commands are available.
  
  Regards.

  Thanks for the reply Charudatta .
  
  I understand this is the case but I think these tools should be available with both sketch based constraints enabled and not enabled and I can't really understand why they aren't.
  
  Hopefully you can pass this onto development and they can be activated in future releases.

    Yes, Tim Dukes . That is correct. Since constraint-based sketching is in development, these capabilities will be added in subsequent releases.
    
    Regards.
