Attaching a Sketch to a Redline

One or more selected objects can be attached to a redline object to illustrate the redline comments. The object to be attached as a sketch must be selected before drawing the redline; this process converts the selected object to a sketch symbol and places it in a Redline Sketches symbol folder saved with the file.

 

To attach a selected object as a redline sketch:

1.	Select the object to be converted to a sketch.

2.	Click the Redline tool from the Dims/Notes tool set, and draw the redline as described in Redline Tool.

The Place Redline dialog box opens.

3.	Select Attach the current selection as a sketch and click OK.

4.	The selection is converted to a symbol that is attached to and moves with the redline object.

The sketch can be hidden by deselecting Show Sketch in the Object Info palette.
