So there's lots of interesting ways that we can do this, and I think the easiest thing to do is to show you some examples so you can kind of get the idea. So I'm going to zoom in over here on the right hand side of this plan, and I'm going to focus on this break room first, and let's say that it's important to me to establish the distance of this door off of this wall, and then to constrain that, to lock that in to prevent that from changing.
