Sketch

Introduction
In FreeCAD the word "Sketch" is normally used to refer to a Sketcher SketchObject ( class) that is defined by the Sketcher Workbench. This is a 2D drawing that uses mathematical constraints to describe 2D geometry precisely.

See Sketcher SketchObject for more information about this type of object.
