-
Move the pointer over the sketch entity to extend.
A preview appears in the direction to extend the entity.
-
If the preview extends in the wrong direction, move the pointer to the other half of the line or arc.

Click the sketch entity to accept the preview.
To extend a sketch entity beyond the closest entity, click to place the first sketch extension, drag towards the next sketch entity, then click place the second extension, etc.
