07.04.01 Drawing Single Linear Takeoff Segments Using Normal Mode
Last Updated: 2022-02-21 13:08
Use the Normal Mode Linear Takeoff tool () to draw a single, segment or several segments that do not share endpoints.
To draw a single Linear segment:
Select the tool from the Takeoff Toolbar
Click on the starting point of the linear to be measured
While holding down the mouse button, drag to the end point
Release the mouse button
Once you "close" (meaning complete, or end) this takeoff object, you can select a segment, move it, reassign it (to a different Linear Takeoff Item), or even delete it without affecting any of the other segments. Selecting and editing takeoff is discussed in Related Articles.
If you are drawing numerous, connected segments, you may find it easier and more efficient to use the Continuous Mode Linear Takeoff tool (), covered in the next article.
Warning
Before drawing any takeoff, you must set and verify Scale, see Related articles.
