    • Between two key points on an element. You click two points (A, B) and then click to place the centerline (C).

    • Between two center marks.

    • In free space.

  • You can modify a centerline by dragging the edit handles on the centerline. You can also cut, copy, or paste a centerline. When you drag the centerline away from the element it is attached to, the centerline no longer has a relationship to that element.
