Constructing Lines

Use the Line command to construct Lines in a drawing.

To construct a Line or a series of connected Lines:

2. In the graphics area, specify:
   1. A point to start the line segment.
   2. A point to end the line segment.
   3. Another point to define the next segment or press Enter to finish the drawing.

  Each segment in a series of connected Lines is a separate entity. You can also use the Line command to append Lines to existing Lines or Arcs.

To undo a line segment:

• Press Ctrl + Z or type Undo.

To close a Line drawing:

• Specify the Close option.

To append a line segment to an existing line or arc:

2. Press Enter.

   The appended continuation line attaches to the end of last Line or Arc that you drew.
