Draft Mode

The draft mode supports the conception phase of the construction. As with paper and pencil the draft may be sketched freely without dimensions and command inputs. With the help of parametric constraints and parametric dimensions correct scale drawings can be generated out of sketched geometry later.
For easily and efficiently utilizing the draft mode we recommend to activate the snap circle as well as the Intelligent Snap Mode.
The draft mode is activated by clicking the third button (pencil) in the icon header. Then the sketcher menu will appear on the screen.
All other CAD commands are locked in the draft mode and thus can not be used.
