Sketcher CreatePoint/pt

Description
The Point tool creates a point in the current sketch, which can be used for constructing geometry elements. The point is always an construction element and does not show up in the 3D-view.



Usage

 * Click on the button, to activate the function.
 * Clicking in the sketch creates a point.
 * Pressing or clicking the right mouse button cancels the function.

Options

 * By default points are created as construction geometry and therefore not visible outside of Sketch editing mode. Use the Sketcher_ToggleConstruction.svg Toggle Construction tool to change them to normal geometry.
 * A mode to snap to the grid can be set in the Sketcher Preferences. The point snaps then to the grid, if it has less than 25% grid distance to a grid line. The snap mode does not fix them to the grid. The points can be moved with the mouse or constraints to other locations.
