Inferencing displays relations by means of dotted inferencing lines, pointer display, and highlighted cues such as endpoints and midpoints.
|
Inferencing lines appear as you sketch, displaying relations between the pointer and existing sketch entities (or model geometry). |

The pointer display indicates when the pointer is over a geometric relation
(an intersection, for example), what tool is active (line or circle),
and dimensions (angle and radius of an arc). If the pointer displays a
relation (such as NOTE: You can turn off automatic relations. Click Tools, Sketch Settings, Automatic Relations. |

Geometric relations such as endpoints, midpoints, and vertices highlight when the pointer approaches them, then change color when the pointer is poised to select them. On the left, a midpoint highlights and the pointer shows that a coincident
