Many of the drawing tools (such as Draw Line and Draw Circle) contain parameters that you can define to draw the element. Other parameters might display a value the software calculates.

The software locks the parameter after you define the value. Click the lock to open the parameter and change the value. The graphic below shows a locked box on the left and an unlocked box on the right.

Some parameters provide a calculator you access using the drop-down list (see below). Use the calculator to determine the parameter's value.

The software draws the element using the values you enter along with any relations you added (see Drawing with relations). The following table describes the different definitions for a drawn element.

Incorrectly defined
