Draft Edit/pl

Description
The Draft Edit command puts selected objects in Draft Edit mode. In this mode the properties of objects can be edited graphically. Typically nodes can be moved and in some cases context menu options can be selected. The command can handle most Draft objects, but also some other objects. See Supported objects. Supported Draft objects can also be put in Draft Edit mode with the Std Edit command.



Usage
See also: Draft Snap and Draft Constrain.


 * 1) Optionally select one or more objects. Note that although multiple objects can be in Draft Edit mode, objects can only be edited one at a time.
 * 2) There are several ways to invoke the command:
 * 3) * If you have not yet selected an object: double-click an object in the Tree view. This only work for supported Draft objects.
 * 4) * Press the button.
 * 5) * Select the option from the menu.
 * 6) * Use the keyboard shortcut: then.
 * 7) If you have not yet selected an object: select an object in the 3D view.
 * 8) The selected objects are marked with temporary nodes, and the Main task panel opens. See Options for more information.
 * 9) Optionally use a node or edge context menu. These context menus are only available for some Draft objects. See Supported objects for more information.
 * 10) * Do one of the following:
 * 11) ** On all operating systems: hold down and click the node or edge. To use  you may have to click in the 3D view once to ensure that it has the focus.
 * 12) ** On Windows: hold down and click the node or edge.
 * 13) ** On Linux: hold down +, + or, and click the node or edge.
 * 14) ** On macOS: hold down and click the node or edge.
 * 15) * Select an option from the context menu.
 * 16) * If the selected option requires point input:
 * 17) ** The Node task panel opens. See Options for more information.
 * 18) ** Pick a point in the 3D view, or type coordinates and press the button.
 * 19) Optionally move a node:
 * 20) * Click the node in the 3D view.
 * 21) * The Node task panel opens. See Options for more information.
 * 22) * Pick a point in the 3D view, or type coordinates and press the button.
 * 23) * The result depends on the object and the selected node.
 * 24) Press  or the  button to finish the command.

Options
The single character keyboard shortcuts mentioned here can be changed. See Draft Preferences.

Main task panel

 * Press or the  button to finish the command. If a single Draft Wire has been selected the wire is closed.
 * Press or the  button to finish the command.

Node task panel

 * To manually enter coordinates enter the X, Y and Z component, and press after each. Or you can press the  button when you have the desired values. It is advisable to move the pointer out of the 3D view before entering coordinates.
 * To use polar coordinates enter a value for the and a value for the, and press  after each.
 * Check the checkbox to constrain the pointer to the specified angle.
 * The checkbox has no purpose for this command.
 * Press or click the  checkbox to toggle global mode. If global mode is on, coordinates are relative to the global coordinate system, else they are relative to the working plane coordinate system.
 * The checkbox has no purpose for this command.
 * Press to switch Draft snapping on or off.
 * The button has no purpose for this command.

 * The color of the temporary nodes is the same as the color of the snap symbols. This color can be changed in the preferences: . Note that this color is not used for the temporary nodes displayed for Draft BezCurves. These nodes use the of the curve instead.

There is no Python method to Draft Edit objects. To emulate the results of the command geometric properties of objects have to be modified.
