This task shows how to
align a run to an existing surface or edge while in directional routing
mode. |
 |
This function uses the compass to align a
run to the surface or edge. It is assumed that you have taken the steps
necessary to start a run. See Routing a
Run. |
 |
1. |
In
the directional routing 
mode move the compass that shows at the end of the run to the edge whose
angle you want to emulate.
|
|
2. |
The Z axis of the compass (it may read W) assumes the angle of the edge
against which it is held. |
|
3. |
At the same time the last segment of your run assumes the angle of the
compass' Z axis. |
|
4. |
Click once at the end of the segment to move the compass back to it. You
can repeat the action to make the run align with any other edge or surface
in the area. |
|
5. |
Double click to end the run. |
