[tobeysnz]

hi there
im back again with a small question regarding ,,if it is possible to use some /or all tools twice in a row when needed, instead of having to go back & forth,to the tool bar and activate it again ( line tool for instance!)?
cheers.

line tool for instance

If you are talking about the sketcher it is automatic when you have "Continue mode" selected in Preferences. The line tool remains selected until you do something to deselect it. Just click-and-drag or click-move-click as many times as you want.

Hi every one sorry for the late reply
i have e been of the grid for last few days.
and thanks you all for the replys.
And Gene,
its the other wok benches that have the sketching tools ( Yellow color) that im asking about.
benches like the Arch/draft.
please see attached pics to clarify my question, as these yellow tools only get activated once not continuously, unless there is a setting that im not aware of to make them behave like the sketcher tools!.
cheers.
