Draw Angles

Draw Angles

TOTAL Sketch provides several ways you can draw or adjust the angles in your sketch. To draw an angle with the keyboard and mouse:

1. In a sketch, click the down arrow beside the Draw button in the toolbar or choose the Draw panel at the right side of the screen and select either Area or Free‑form Lines.

   

2. Click your sketch to place a starting point for your new line and begin drawing.

3. Now, simply draw your angled line. Once the line is set, you can adjust the angle in two ways:

   • Click the Modify button in the toolbar at the top of the screen. Then, click the open end of your line and drag it to adjust the angle (and length) of your line.

     

   • Remain in Draw mode and simply write the correct angle over top of the existing angle label.

     

Drawing Angles using Rise and Run

In addition to modifying your angles, you can adjust the rise and run of a line using your stylus. Once your angle is created and rise and run measurements are displayed, simply write over the existing rise or run label to adjust.
