Geometric constraints

The geometric constraint commands constrain the orientation of a segment parallel or perpendicular to other features, or to the vertical axis in 3D scenes. They are available when you draw line or polygon feature geometry.

Constraint

Description

Parallel Parallel

Constrain the current segment parallel to an another feature.

Perpendicular Perpendicular

Constrain the current segment perpendicular to an another feature.

Vertical Vertical

Constrain the current z-aware segment to the vertical axis in a 3D scene.

Note:

This command is only available with 3D scenes.
