This tool allows you to use the mouse to create a sketch line based on a set increment. The increment (length of each line segment) is set by right clicking on the tool to open the modifier. The default increment is 1” but is often changed to give the line being drawn a more structured look. There is a limitation to how long these lines can be, so it is a good idea to use this tool sparingly or use the right mouse button to break (end) the line during the drawing process.
To use this tool:
1. Click on the tool (shown above) to open the modifier.
2. Enter the Increment ‐ this the length of each line segment that will be drawn and press the [spacebar].
3. Click on the drawing page where you want the line to start, as you move the mouse around on the drawing a line will follow and be drawn onto the page.
4. When finished, right‐click the mouse button to break the line.
