- Define your sketch plane.
- Start drawing a line or arc. Notice that Shapr3D automatically enters sketch mode and detects what you're drawing.
- To switch from arc to line and vice versa while sketching, wiggle your pen.
If you want to override the automatic behavior, follow these steps:
- Go to Sketch > Line/Arc.
For other methods of accessing this tool, visit Accessing tools. - Tap the Line Type menu below Line/Arc.
