Point selection (2) submenu

The Undo function undoes the last action.

The Element selection function can be used to select individual elements.

The Contour path function is used to select the contour path that connects the selected start element with the selected end element.

The Snap point function is used to select an existing snap point.

Snap points are start and end points of elements, bisection points as well as centres of circles and arcs.

At the same time, a free point can be set by clicking with the middle mouse button.

The Perpendicular point function is used to select the point on the nearest geometry element closest to the mouse pointer position.

The Endpoint function selects one of the two endpoints of an element.

The Bisection point function selects a point located at the centre of the element.

For a line this is the centre of the line, for an arc the point is at the centre of the arc.

The Intersection function generates a new point at the intersection between two circle, arc or line elements. The elements themselves are not separated. If the two elements do not intersect directly, the possible intersection points are determined.

The Line point function generates a point on a line at a distance from the end point.

The distance can be positive (point on the line) or negative (point outside the line).

The Free point function generates a point at any cursor position.

The Close function terminates and saves the action.
