Curve: Create Line 2D

Function

Create straight lines of the edge type.  It is only applicable on the work plane.

Call

Geometry > Curve > Create on WP > Line

<Line>

Location

Enter the coordinates of the Start and End locations.  The coordinates are expressed in different forms noted below.
 

Input Start Location

Specify the coordinates of a Start Location [(ABS x, y)]
Input End Location

Specify the coordinates of an End Location [(ABS x, y), (REL dx, dy), (Length, Angle)].
 

<Methods of Entering Coordinates>

ABS x, y

Enter 2-D coordinates for an absolute location on the Work Plane.
REL dx, dy

Enter a distance relative to the Start Location on the Work Plane.
Length,  Angle

Enter a relative distance from the Start Location and a rotational Angle (counterclockwise +) from the + X-direction on the Work Plane.

When we enter coordinates using the mouse, the coordinates are automatically entered by a left-click on the desired point, without having to press the Apply button.  However, when coordinates are typed in, either the Enter key or the Apply button needs to be pressed.

Notes

When 3-D coordinates are selected in 3-D space using Snap, the program will automatically project the point into 2-D coordinates of the Work Plane.
