4.4.3      Sketcher Geometries

Various geometries can be drawn using the following options:

 - Point: Draws a point.

 - Line by 2 point: Draws a line segment from 2 points.

 - Polyline (multiple-point line): Draws a line made of multiple line segments. Pressing the M key while drawing a Polyline toggles between the different polyline modes.

 - Rectangle: Draws a rectangle from 2 opposite points.

 - Circle: Draws a circle from centre and radius.

 - Arc: Draws an arc segment from centre, radius, start angle and end angle.

 - Ellipse by center: Draws an ellipse by centre point, major radius point and minor radius point.

 - Arc of ellipse: Draws an arc of ellipse by centre point, major radius point, starting point and ending point.

 - Clone: create a clone of the geometry with respect to the last selected point.

 - Simple Copy: create a simple copy of the geometry with respect to the last selected point.

 - Symmetric Geometry: create symmetric geometry with respect to the last selected line or point.

 - Rectangular array: create a rectangular array pattern of the geometry with respect to the last selected point.

 - Triangle: draws a regular triangle inscribed in a construction geometry circle.

 - Square: draws a regular square inscribed in a construction geometry circle.

 - Pentagon: draws a regular pentagon inscribed in a construction geometry circle.

 - Hexagon: draws a regular hexagon inscribed in a construction geometry circle.

 - Heptagon: draws a regular heptagon inscribed in a construction geometry circle.

 - Octagon: draws a regular octagon inscribed in a construction geometry circle.

 - Fillet: makes a fillet between two lines joined at one point. Select both lines or click on the corner point, then activate the tool.
