Description
The Point tool creates a simple point in the current work plane, handy to serve as reference for placing lines, wires, or other objects later. It uses the Draft Linestyle (only the color) set on the Draft Tray.
How to use
- Press the Draft Point button, or press P then T keys
- Click a point on the 3D view, or type a coordinate
Options
- To enter coordinates manually, simply enter the numbers, then press ENTER between each X, Y and Z component.
- Press ESC or the Cancel button to abort the current Line command.
Properties
- DataX: The X coordinate of the point
- DataY: The Y coordinate of the point
- DataZ: The Z coordinate of the point
Scripting
The Point tool can by used in macros and from the python console by using the following function:
makePoint([x],[y],[z])
- makes a point at the given coordinates. If no X, Y and Z coordinates are given, the point is created at (0,0,0). Returns the newly created object.
Example:
import Draft
Draft.makePoint(6,4,2)
