Document structure
Interface Customization

The preferences of the Sketcher is located in the Edit menu → Preferences → Sketcher. It consists of 2 tabs:

General Settings

In the General tab you can specify the following:

Name Description
Font size The font size used for the labels and constraints in the sketch.
Grid line pattern The line pattern used for grid lines. Grid lines will be displayed if you set the option Show grid.
Segments per geometry Curves are approximated by polygon segments for visualization. The segments per geometry define the number of polygons for the approximation. The lower limit are 50 segments. Higher values refine the visualization but can lead to longer calculation times, especially for B-splines.
Ask for value after creating a dimensional constraint If checked, a dialog will pop up to input a value for new dimensional constraints.
Show Advanced Solver Control in the Task bar If checked, the sketcher dialog will have the additional section Advanced solver control to adjust solver settings.

Colors

In the Colors tab you can specify the following:

Name Description
Default edge color ??
