Opens the CONSTRUCTION dialog,
which is used to create general construction lines.
Tip: Additional tools are used to
quickly create construction lines with specific constraints.

Parallel &
Offset
|
Used to create a construction
line running parallel with a reference line using a specified distance. First,
enter the desired distance and then click the reference line. Finally, click
the side of the reference line where you want to create the parallel line.

Normal to &
Offset
|
Used to create a
perpendicular construction line for a reference line with distance from a
reference point. First, enter the desired distance and, then click the
reference line. Finally, click the reference point and then on the side of the
reference point where you want to create the line.

Divide
|
Used to divide a reference
line into equal segments and create corresponding perpendicular construction
lines along this line (also utilizing the start and end point). First enter the
number of sections and then click the reference line.
