  4. A center line will be added at the midpoint of the bounding box of the selected Face(s).

Cosmetic center lines are not accessible from macros or the Python console at this time.

Notes

  • FaceCenterLine will eventually replace two View properties:
    • ViewHorizCenterLine: Show a horizontal centerline through view.
    • ViewVertCenterLine: Show a vertical centerline through view.
