Forcing a Line Segment to Become Horizontal or Vertical
You can draw a line segment and force it to be aligned with the closer axis, horizontal or vertical. You can also take an existing line segment and have it align with the closer axis. The types of line segments that you can align are lines, line segments of leaders and polylines, and measure entities.
Note This procedure only works for measure entities that are drawn using Free snap.
- To draw and force a line segment, press and hold the Shift key while you click and drag for that line segment.
To force an existing line segment, click and hold the left mouse button on the line segment, then press and hold the Shift key.
- When you see that the line segment is horizontal or vertical, release the left mouse button, then release the Shift key.
