Edit a Line with Grip Points

Edit a line with its grip points. Select the line and edit the line from the grip points.

You can move the line as a bevel, freely, stretch, add a point, or delete a point.

If a geometric constraint is connected to a line element, the line cannot be modified using its grip points. When the 2D Constraint Manager is in use, drawing functions automatically generate constraints.

For example, if you select a line as the start point of the line, the Coincident constraint is automatically added to the line point. Parametric drawings are modified by editing the constraints, not using their grip points.

Note:
  • You can view the geometric constraints connected to a line by selecting the line, and the context-sensitive function Properties. The Line Properties dialog box is opened.
