Entwurf

The preferences for the Draft Workbench can be found in the Preferences Editor. In the menu select Edit → Preferences... and then Draft.

There are five tabs: General settings, User interface settings, Grid and snapping, Visual settings and Texts and dimensions.

Allgemeine Einstellungen

On the General settings tab you can specify the following:

Name	Description
Default working plane	The initial working plane when the Draft Workbench is first loaded in a FreeCAD session. The options are: None: this is equivalent to the Automatic option of the Draft SelectPlane command. XY (Top) XZ (Front) YZ (Side)
Internal precision level	The number of decimals used in internal coordinate operations (for example 3 = 0.001). Values between 6 and 8 are usually considered the best trade-off. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Tolerance	Some internal operations use a tolerance. Values with differences below this value will be treated as the same. This preference will be obsoleted soon, the Internal precision level mentioned above will then be used for the tolerance as well. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Show groups in layers list drop-down button	If checked, the layers drop-down list will also show groups, allowing you to automatically add objects to groups as well. See Draft AutoGroup.
Set focus on Length instead of X coordinate	Set the focus on the Length input box, if available, instead of the X coordinate input box. This allows to specify a direction and a distance to define the next point.
Select base objects after copying	If checked, the base objects are reselected after copying objects.
Set the Support property when possible	If checked, when creating a Draft object on top of the selected face of an existing object, the DatenSupport property of the Draft object will be set to that base object. This was standard behavior before FreeCAD version 0.19.
Fill objects with faces whenever possible	If checked, commands will start with filled mode switched on. If filled mode is on, the created objects will have DatenMake Face set to `true`. Changing the filled mode in a task panel will override this preference for the current FreeCAD session. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Global copy mode	If checked, copy mode will be kept across commands. Otherwise commands will always start with copy mode switched off.
Use Part Primitives when available	If checked, Draft commands create Part primitives instead of Draft objects when possible. Note that not all Part primitives are fully editable with the Draft modifier commands.
Prefix labels of Clones with	The default prefix added to the labels of Draft clones.
Construction group name	The default name (FreeCAD version 0.19) or the default label (FreeCAD version 0.20) for the Draft construction group.
Construction geometry color	The default color for objects drawn while in construction mode.

User interface settings

On the User interface settings tab you can specify the following:

Name	Description
In-Command Shortcuts	These shortcuts only work when a Draft or Arch command is active. Note that not all commands support all shortcuts. After changing on or more of these shortcuts you must restart FreeCAD.
Relative	Shortcut to toggle relative mode. If relative mode is on, coordinates are relative to the last point, if available, else they are relative to the coordinate system origin.
Continue	Shortcut to toggle continue mode. If continue mode is on, commands will restart after finishing.
Close	Shortcut to press the Close button.
Copy	Shortcut to toggle copy mode. If copy mode is on, the command will create modified copies instead of modifying the original objects.
Subelement Mode	Shortcut to toggle subelement mode. If subelement mode is on, the command will use the selected subelements instead of the whole objects.
Fill	Shortcut to toggle filled mode. If filled mode is on, the created object will have DatenMake Face set to `true`.
Exit	Shortcut to press the Finish button.
Select Edge	Shortcut to press the Select edge button. See Draft Dimension.
Add Hold	Shortcut to insert a "hold point" at the current location of the cursor. See Draft Snap.
Length	Shortcut to change the focus from the X coordinate input box to the Length input box and vice versa.
Wipe	Shortcut to press the Wipe button.
Set WP	Shortcut to press the Set WP button.
Cycle Snap	Shortcut to change snap priority to an object that is obscured by other geometry. See Draft Snap.
Global	Shortcut to toggle global mode. If global mode is on, coordinates are relative to the global coordinate system, else they are relative to the working plane coordinate system. introduced in version 0.20
Snap	Shortcut to toggle Draft snapping.
Increase Radius	Shortcut to increase the maximum distance at which Draft Snap Grid detects the intersections of grid lines. See Draft SelectPlane.
Decrease Radius	Shortcut to decrease the maximum distance at which Draft Snap Grid detects the intersections of grid lines.
Restrict X	Shortcut to constrain the movement of the cursor to the X axis. See Draft Constrain.
Restrict Y	Shortcut to constrain the movement of the cursor to the Y axis.
Restrict Z	Shortcut to constrain the movement of the cursor to the Z axis.
Draft Statusbar	This option does not work properly, it should always be checked.
Draft snap widget	If checked, the Draft snap widget is enabled. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Annotation scale widget	If checked, the Draft annotation scale widget is enabled. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.

Gitter und Fangen

Note that several grid preferences can also be changed with the Draft SelectPlane command. This command will update the grid in the current 3D view in real-time.

On the Grid and snapping tab you can specify the following:

Name	Description
Always snap (disable snap mod)	If checked, snapping is activated without the need to press the Snap mod key.
Constrain mod	The Constraining modifier key. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Snap mod	The Snap modifier key. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Alt mod	The Alt modifier key. The function of this key depends on the command. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Show Draft Snap toolbar	If checked, the Snap toolbar will be shown whenever a command is active. This option and the next option should both be checked or unchecked. Other combinations do not make sense.
Hide Draft snap toolbar after use	If checked, the Snap toolbar will be hidden after use. This option and the previous option should both be checked or unchecked. Other combinations do not make sense.
Use grid	If checked, a grid will appear when drawing. After changing this preference you must restart FreeCAD.
Always show the grid	If checked, the Draft grid will always be visible when the Draft Workbench or Arch Workbench is active. Otherwise only when using a command.
Show grid border	If checked, an additional border is displayed around the grid, showing the main square size in the bottom left corner. After changing this preference you must open a new 3D view or restart FreeCAD.
Show human figure	If checked, the outline of a human figure is displayed at the bottom left corner of the grid, provided Show grid border mentioned above is also checked, and the BIM Workbench is installed. introduced in version 0.20 After changing this preference you must use Draft ToggleGrid twice or restart FreeCAD.
Use colored axes	If checked, the two main axes of the grid will be colored red, green or blue if they match the X, Y or Z axis of the global coordinate system. After changing this preference you must use Draft ToggleGrid twice or restart FreeCAD.
Main lines every	The number of squares between main grid lines. These lines are thicker than normal grid lines. After changing this preference you must use Draft ToggleGrid twice or restart FreeCAD.
Grid spacing	The distance between grid lines. After changing this preference you must use Draft ToggleGrid twice or restart FreeCAD.
