You can use a mouse gesture as a shortcut to execute a command or macro quickly, similar to a keyboard shortcut.
Contents
You can use mouse gestures by right-dragging in the graphics area to invoke a preassigned tool or macro from a drawing, part, assembly, or sketch. You can enable or disable mouse gestures, and set the number of mouse gestures that appear in the mouse gestures guide.
You can customize mouse gestures by assigning different tools. In addition to tools, you can assign macros and the OK, Cancel, and Escape commands.
The Mouse Gestures tab of the Customize dialog box includes options for enabling and disabling mouse gestures and for viewing and customizing mouse gesture assignments.
The Copy Settings Wizard lets you save and restore mouse gestures independently of system options.
