Modifying entities

progeCAD provides many editing tools for modifying a drawing. You can easily move, rotate, or stretch drawing entities, or change their scale. When you want to remove an entity, you can delete it with a few clicks of the mouse. You can also make multiple copies of any entity and copy entities from one drawing to another.

You can modify most entities using general-purpose editing commands. Some com­plex entities require special commands. This section explains how to:

•    Select entities using entity-selection methods and grips.

•    Change the properties of entities.

•    Hiding, isolating, and deleting entities.

•    Rearrange entities by moving, rotating, or changing the display order.

•    Resize entities by stretching, scaling, extending, trimming, or editing their lengths.

•    Split and combine entities by breaking, joining, exploding, and grouping them.

•    Edit polylines.

•    Create chamfers and fillets.
