Other Settings
In addition to the basic line and label font settings, there are a few other options you can adjust on the right:
From Titan Sketch's Preferences, click the Draw tab.
Check or uncheck the desired options. Options include:
Show Pop Points
Pop points assist you in drawing your sketches by offering clickable points as you draw. These points automate the drawing process by allowing you to draw lines that match up with other lines and intersections in your sketch. By default, Titan Sketch enables these pop points, but you can disable them by unchecking this box.
Auto Scroll
If you draw your sketches with a keyboard, Titan Sketch assists you in scrolling your sketch as you draw lines. Specifically, if the line you are drawing is longer than the amount of space that is currently displayed on screen, Titan Sketch automatically scrolls the view of your sketch to grant you more drawing space. By default, this option is enabled, but you can disable it by unchecking this box.
Auto Resize Dimension Labels
Titan Sketch automatically scales the size of your dimension labels to fit the space available in your sketch. This feature is on by default, but you can uncheck this box to manually adjust the size of your dimension labels.
Prompt for area definition when area is created
When closing an area, Titan Sketch prompts you choose an area type. By default, Titan Sketch enables this option, but if you prefer to draw your entire sketch and label each area once the sketch is complete, you can disable this option by unchecking the box.
Show dimensions for free‑form lines
By default, Titan Sketch hides the dimension labels for free‑form lines. If you'd like to display them in your sketch, just check this box.
Show area name and calculations
Titan Sketch can display the names and calculations for the areas you've drawn. By default, this feature is turned off (to keep labels and calculations out of your way), but you can enable it by checking this box.
Automatically place dimension label after anchoring line
By default, Titan Sketch automatically places line dimensions for you as you draw your sketch. If you prefer to manually place the dimension label each time you anchor the end point of a line, check this box.
