Rectangle (2D)

 

Invoked ByInsert go to Geometry go to Ellipses go to (Sketch/Sheet Level)

 

Rectangle (2D)Use this command to create various types of 2D rectangles defining points.  Center, Corner, Center, Corner and Center, Angle methods are supported.  Refer to each method below.  Optionally, you can specify the height and width of all rectangles. Rectangles are automatically constrained and dimensioned if the options are enabled on the  Sketch Settings Form.

 

Draw Rectangle (Center, Diagonal Point) Rectangle (2D), Center Method

 

Draw Rectangle (Center, Diagonal Point)Use the Center method to create a horizontal or vertical rectangle by defining its center point and a diagonal point.

 

  1. Select the center point.

  2. Select a diagonal point.

 

 

Draw Rectangle (2 Diagonal Points) Rectangle (2D), Corner Method

 

Draw Rectangle (2 Diagonal Points)Use the Corner method to create a horizontal or vertical rectangle by defining two diagonal points.

 

  1. Select the first diagonal point.

  2. Select the second diagonal point.
     

 

Draw Angled Rectangle Rectangle (2D), Center, Corner Method

 

Draw Angled RectangleUse the Center, Corner method to create a rectangle by defining its center point, a point along the first axis, and a diagonal point. This command can be used to create an angled rectangle. The point along the first axis will determine the angle.
 

  1. Select the center point.

  2. Specify the angle or select a point along the first axis.

  3. Select a diagonal point or enter the height.  

 

 

Draw Rectangle (3 Points) Rectangle (2D), Corner, Angle Method

 

Draw Rectangle (3 Points)Use the Corner, Angle method to create a rectangle by defining 3 corner points. This command can be used to create an angled rectangle. The second corner point determines the angle while the third determines the height.

 

  1. Select the first corner point.

  2. Select the second corner point (angle).

  3. Select the third corner point or enter the height.
