The Draw menu items
In this menu, you can add elements to the drawing.
After entering the data of the new element, the insertion takes place as follows.
The program automatically switches to the top view.
The elements to be inserted - marked in red - can be moved with the mouse on the drawing page.
The following functions are then available:
- By pressing the TAB key, you can turn the alignment function on and off.,
When this feature is on, it helps you place new items next to existing items.
- Use the keyboard arrows to move the new element more precisely.

-By holding down the left mouse button continuously, the drawing sheet can be moved on the screen.
-A measurement tool can be turned on and off by pressing the right mouse button.
The measured values can be read in the lower right corner of the window.
This method can also be used to draw dimension lines. A method of this can be found in the "View" menu.)
- The drawing can be enlarged with the vertical scroll wheel of the mouse.
It is always recommended to paste in the highest magnification, because only here can you achieve millimeter precision.
If the element is in place in the top view, the program switches to the front view by clicking with the left mouse button.
Then the element can be placed vertically on the drawing.
If this is also there, click again and we are done with the pasting.
