The drafting entities are found in the Symbols Toolbar and in the main menu under Symbols. When a drafting entity is selected, its toolbar icon appears pressed. Selecting a new drafting entity will exit the current entity and activate the new one.
To create a new drafting entity:
Select the entity (for example: datum target) from the toolbar or main menu Symbols / Datum Target.
Select an edge to which to connect the drafting entity, or select an unattached location on the screen. In some cases you can attach the entity to an existing entity.
If an edge was selected first, position the entity; if the entity was positioned as unattached, select the leader location.
The entities are editable. Pick the text in the body of the entity and drag it to a new location on the sheet.
Move the cursor around the entity to highlight the hot spots and tool tips. Click on any of the boxes to open a mini dialog and edit its parameters.
Press exit to complete the operation or select another entity.
