Creates a Table Edge
With MagneticSnap (Section 2.12.1) enabled, the new line start position will snap to the nearest draw object, as shown by the anchor unless Alt
is held down. If it is disabled, it will only snap if Alt is held. If GridSnap is enabled and MagneticSnap does not find a postion, the first position will snap to the Grid. This is suppressed if Alt is held.
If Ctrl
is held down during Left+Drag
the edge will to a end point of another table edge or to a multiple of 90 degrees if that isn't available.
If Sticky is set for straight draw, after the edge is drawn there will be two text fields on the bottom rail, to allow fine-tuning of the angle and the length. Pressing Enter
or Tab
with the cursor in these boxes will apply the value to the edge. Pressing Space
or Enter
or Tab
on the drawing surface will move to drawing a new edge. Pressing Shift+Tab
on the drawing surface will remove the current object and allow a new one to be drawn. Even if Esc
is pressed, the edge will already exist, it can be removed with Undo.
