Translations:Sandbox:TechDraw template creation tutorial/60/en

From FreeCAD Documentation

The finished template is likely to turn out irregular and messy if made without any references for the placement of lines, text and other items.

  • Open File → Document Properties → Grids and click New to create a new grid.
  • A set of grid properties will shown, adjust these to your liking. For example, to get a 1 by 1 mm grid, set Grid units: to mm and both Spacing X: and Spacing Y: to 1.0
  • Also, you can set the interval of major grid lines for easier readability by changing the Major grid line every: parameter.
