Description

The Draft Join tool attempts to join all selected Draft Lines and Draft Wires into a single wire.

The counterpart to this tool is the Draft Split operation.

Usage

  1. Select two or more wires that you wish to join together.
  2. Press the Draft Join button or press J then O keys.

If the open end of a wire in your selection coincides with the open end of another wire in your selection, they will be joined into a single wire. The properties of the first wire in your selection will remain and the rest of the objects will be deleted.

Options

There are no options for this tool. Either it works with the selected objects or not.

Scripting
