Learn about the different possibilities of moving sketch

Do you know, that… ?

Sometimes there is a need to move sketch. However, the sketch that has a relationship can not be directly moved. Therefore, you can sketch a turn on the block – he loses the internal relations, and it can easily move (or rotate or scale). Of course you can also add relationships such blocks as a whole – this is done independently of the existing internal relations.

If you use Shaded contours sketch, You can move sketches grabbing the shaded interior (and not e.g.. in the case of a circle for its center). In addition, easy to recognize the drawing order of overlapping contours, because the overlapping areas are darker. While you can turn off this option in the settings sketch.

There are also lesser known option called modify sketch. It is used to rotate, transmission or reflection mirror sketches.

modify sketch rotates or moves sketch together with the coordinate system! It is, however, a restriction, sketch can not have external relations.

There is a fundamental difference in the tool above to operations Move / Copy / Scale available under the right mouse button. These operations include relationships, and therefore will not always be possible, for example. rotation or transfer (block this relationship). using modify – sketch moves together with the system, So relationships remain intact.

An example of the lack of transferability sketch put below. note, that was decorated option Keep the relationship.

Each sketch can also copy by dragging with CTRL or even cut CTRL + X to continue paste it CTRL + V. Using the SHIFT moves as in the case of files or folders in Windows.
