Choose a tool from the left rail or Add menu. A catalog opens a choice of objects; choose an example to begin its placement. Select an existing object to change that instance in the right panel. Placement and editing differ between point objects, contours and hosted openings.
Common controls
Select and inspect, move, rotate and reshape, change a Level, snaps and guides, clipboard and Undo/Redo explain the shared commands. Move pans the workspace; moving a model object uses that object's supported handles.
