Click and hold on a line segment then press Insert on the keyboard to add a vertex at that point.
Right-click on a vertex point then choose the Edit Line Vertex n command to access the Vertices tab of the PolyLine dialog with the entry for the nth vertex selected ready for editing.
The end points and other vertices will remain anchored.
Click and drag on a line segment to grab that segment and reposition it.
Click and drag B to move a line vertex.
Click and drag A to reposition the end points of the line.
When a line object is selected, the following editing handles are available:Ī selected Line, ready for graphical editing This method of editing allows you to select a placed line object directly in the workspace and change its size and/or shape graphically. The segment you are actually placing precedes this look-ahead segment.
In all modes other than Any Angle, the line segment attached to the cursor is a look-ahead segment.
You can change modes at any time during line placement.
Press Spacebar to cycle through the 90 Degree Up, 90 Degree Down, 45 Degree Up, 45 Degree Down and Any Angle modes.
The mode specifies how corners are created when placing lines and the angles at which lines can be placed. When placing a line there are five placement modes. When this option is enabled, changes made will affect only the object being placed and subsequent objects placed during the same placement session. While attributes can be modified during placement ( Tab to access the Properties panel), keep in mind that these will become the default settings for further placement unless the Permanent option on the Schematic – Defaults page of the Preferences dialog is enabled.
Press the Spacebar to rotate the line counterclockwise or Shift+Spacebar for clockwise rotation.
Press the Alt key to constrain the direction of movement to the horizontal or vertical axis, depending on the initial direction of movement.
Click the workspace pause button overlay ( ) to resume placement.
Press the Tab key to pause the placement and access the Polyline mode of the Properties panel in which its properties can be changed on-the-fly.
Continue placing further line objects or right-click or press Esc to exit placement mode.Īdditional actions that can be performed during placement while the line is still floating on the cursor:.
After placing the final vertex point, right-click or press Esc to complete placement of this line.
Use the Backspace or Delete keys to remove the last line segment placed.
