The Sketcher Workbench is used to create 2D geometries intended for use in the Part Design Workbench and other workbenches. It features a constraint solver allowing to sketch geometry-constrained 2D shapes. It is the basis of parametric modeling.

This wiki page was written based on the v0.12 version of FreeCAD. Prior versions are missing most of the Sketcher tools. To get access to all the current Sketcher features, go to the Download page to update your version of FreeCAD.
