Impostazioni generali consente di impostare alcune proprietà di base come il [[Draft SelectPlane/it|Piano di lavoro]], il nome e il colore del [[Draft ToggleConstructionMode/it|Gruppo costruzione]], un prefisso da usare per i [[Draft Clone/it|Cloni]], e la precisione interna dei calcoli.


In questa pagina è possibile specificare quanto segue:

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Internal precision level}}
| The number of decimals used in internal coordinate operations (for example 3 = 0.001). Values between 6 and 8 are usually considered the best trade-off.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Default working plane}}
| The default [[Draft_SelectPlane|working plane]] for new views. The options are:
* {{MenuCommand|Automatic}}: If set to {{MenuCommand|Automatic}} the working plane will automatically align with the current view whenever a command is started. Additionally it will align to preselected planar faces, or when points on planar faces are picked during commands.
* {{MenuCommand|XY (Top)}}
* {{MenuCommand|XZ (Front)}}
* {{MenuCommand|YZ (Side)}}

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Show working plane tracker}}
| If checked, a widget indicating the current working plane orientation appears when picking points.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Include groups in layer list}}
| If checked, the layers drop-down list also includes groups. Objects can then automatically be added to groups as well. See [[Draft_AutoGroup|Draft AutoGroup]].

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Show prompts in the Report view}}
| If checked, instructions are displayed in the [[Report_view|Report view]] when using Draft commands. {{Version|1.0}}

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Select base objects after copying}}
| If checked, base objects, instead of created copies, are selected after copying.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Create Part primitives if possible}}
| If checked, Draft commands will create [[Part_Primitives|Part primitives]] instead of Draft objects. Note that this is not fully supported, and many objects will not be editable with Draft modification commands.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Keep face colors during downgrade/upgrade}}
| If checked, [[Draft_Downgrade|Draft Downgrade]] and [[Draft_Upgrade|Draft Upgrade]] will keep face colors. Only for the splitFaces and makeShell options.

|-

| If checked, [[Draft_Downgrade|Draft Downgrade]] and [[Draft_Upgrade|Draft Upgrade]] will keep face names. Only for the splitFaces and makeShell options.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Mouse delay}}
| This is the delay in seconds during which the mouse is inactive after entering a number in one of the Draft task panel input fields. During the delay moving the mouse won't change the entered value. Set to 0 to disable the delay.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Max. number of editable objects}}
| The maximum number of objects [[Draft_Edit|Draft Edit]] is allowed to process at the same time.

|-
| {{MenuCommand|Edit node pick radius}}
| The pick radius of edit nodes.

Le preferenze per l'ambiente Draft si trovano nell'Editor preferenze. Nel menu seleziona Modifica → Preferenze... e poi Draft.

Some advanced preferences can only be changed in the Parameter editor. See Fine-tuning.

This page has been updated for version 0.22.

Nella versione 0.21 e precedenti alcune preferenze potrebbero apparire su una pagina diversa e in alcuni casi FreeCAD deve essere riavviato dopo aver modificato una preferenza.
