Click Line on the toolbar to display the Draw Line properties in the State Manager.
Parameters
Line length
Specifies the line length.
Line angle
Specifies the line angle with respect to the X axis.
Additional parameters
Start point X, Y
Specifies the X,Y coordinates for the start point of the line.
End point X, Y
Specifies the X,Y coordinates for the end point of the line.
Delta X, Y
Specifies the horizontal and vertical length of the line.
DE
Specifies the distance of the line from another line. This property is available only when you select Parallel relation.
DA
Specifies the angle of the line with respect to another line. This property is available only when you select Angle relation.
Add relation
Contains commands for adding other geometrical elements, such as lines, circles, and rectangles. You can add up to three different relations. If existing properties contradict a relation, the software displays a message and does not add the relation. The following relations are available.
Tangential
Adds a tangential relation to the selected circular element.
Parallel
Adds a parallel relation to the selected linear element.
Perpendicular
Adds a perpendicular relation to the selected linear element.
Angle
Adjusts the angle of the line you are drawing with respect to the selected line. This command uses the value in the DA box. The Angle command is unavailable until you select a line element in the work area.
Horizontal
Constrains the line to the horizontal axis.
Vertical
Constrains the line to the vertical axis.
Existing relations
Displays the relations selected from Add relation. Click a relation button to remove the relation. The Tangential relation is selected in the example below.
Options
Continuous
Allows you to continue drawing the line from the end point of the last line.
