  1. Make sure snapping is enabled. See Draft Snap Lock.
  2. If Draft Snap Parallel is not active do one of the following:
    • Press the button in the Draft snap toolbar.
    • Hold down the button in the Draft snap widget and in the menu that opens select the Snap Parallel option.
  3. Choose a Draft or Arch command to create your geometry.
  4. Note that you can also change snap options while a command is active.

  7. The edge is highlighted.
  8. If you now move the cursor around the previous point you will notice a "magnetic" effect when the cursor is on the parallel snap line.
