==Bug in version 0.19== |
|||
In FreeCAD version 0.19 this command and the [[Draft_ToggleConstructionMode|Draft ToggleConstructionMode]] command will typically use different groups. To avoid this change the {{MenuCommand|Construction group name}} in the preferences to {{Value|Draft_Construction}}: {{MenuCommand|Edit → Preferences... → Draft → General settings → Construction Geometry → Construction group name}}. In version 0.20 the {{MenuCommand|Construction group name}} is used for the label of the construction group, the name of the group is always {{Value|Draft_Construction}}. |

Description
The Draft AddConstruction command moves objects to the Draft construction group. It also applies the construction geometry color to the objects.
Usage
- Select one or more objects.
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
- Press the Add to construction group button.
- Select the Utilities → Add to construction group option from the menu.
- If it does not exist the construction group is created first.
- The objects are moved to the construction group and their color properties are changed.
Notes
- Objects can also be moved to the construction group by drag and dropping them on the group in the Tree view, or by using the Draft AddToGroup command. But in both cases the construction geometry color is not applied.
- For more information about organizing your model see Document structure and Arch tutorial.
