Example - Adding a Jog Line

In this example, a route line in an explode line sketch goes through a component, so a jog is added to go around that component.

To add a jog to a route line:

  1. Click Jog Line Tool_Jog_Line_Explode_Sketch.gif (Explode Sketch toolbar).
  2. Click a line to begin the jog.
  3. Move the pointer to preview the width and depth of the jog.

    If you click on the sketch line and release the pointer, you can change planes in the 3D sketch by pressing Tab. If you click and drag (without releasing), you cannot change planes.

  4. Click again to complete the jog.

  5. Click cancel.png to close the PropertyManager.
