PartDesign NewSketch/de

Description
This tool creates a new sketch, creates a new PartDesign Body to contain the sketch if one does not exist and automatically opens the Sketcher workbench after creation.

When creating models using the PartDesign workbench, this tool should be preferred to the Sketcher NewSketch tool found in the Sketcher workbench.

How to use

 * 1) Press the  button from the PartDesign toolbar.
 * 2) In the Tasks panel, the Select feature dialog is brought up. Select one of the planes in the list or in the 3D view which can be reoriented for better visibility.
 * 3) Press.
 * 4) The interface automatically switches to the Sketcher workbench and the sketch can be edited. Once the sketch is exited, the interface is brought back to the PartDesign workbench and the 3D view is restored to the view orientation prior to creating the sketch.
 * 5) Alternatively, a plane or a face on the existing active body can be selected before creating the sketch, in which case the sketch is instantly created.

Options

 * To change the attachment of an existing sketch, change its property (see Properties.)
