Sketching is useful for creating irregular boundaries or for tracing with a digitizer. Specify the object type (line, polyline, or spline), increment, and tolerance before sketching.
The following prompts are displayed.
- Sketch
-
Creates a sketch.
- Type
-
Specifies the object type for the sketch line. (SKPOLY system variable)
- Line
- Polyline
- Spline
Note: The PLINETYPE system variable controls the type of 2D polyline created when Type is set to Polyline. - Increment
-
Defines the length of each freehand line segment. You must move the pointing device a distance greater than the increment value to generate a line. (SKETCHINC system variable)
- Tolerance
-
For Splines, specifies how closely the spline’s curve fits to the freehand sketch. (SKTOLERANCE system variable)
