Greetings to the Community! @cricetus I think you want to have automatic repeatability of the tracing similar to Autocad (?), the animated gif practically shows how to do it easily (the procedure already described by colleagues in previous replies), also how to create a polyline/wire from the lines...

Can you explain why you need separate lines? Preference and convention, I guess. I'm an architect and I'm currently in the process of evaluating what FreeCad can do for my 2D-workflow, so for this particular experiment, I'd like to not stray too far from a "traditional" 2D workflow. Separ...

Hello @cricetus , maybe Draft_Wire is the right command for what you want? Greetings to the Community! @cricetus Wb "Draft" --> "Polyline" Wb "Sketcher" --> "Create polyline" Thanks for your help! This is one way of doing it, yet it's basically the polylines ...

Hi everyone, This is going to be a very basic question, and mods please feel free to merge this with an existing thread if necessary since I couldn't find the right subject here. I can't seem to figure out how to draw single simple continuous lines quickly where the new line starts at the endpoint o...

Good question, and something tells me the solution might lie there.

I’m not a programmer and I don’t know anything about conda or environments, all I did was follow the process Syres lined out. The Freecad versions were already installed on my computer before that.

Thanks for the reply. I reinstalled 0.20 and redid the freecad 37 env, but same problem. In fact, when I try to start 0.20 outside of conda, I get the same error message, which was the reason I de-installed in the first place.

Tried this process with Blender 2.83 (Python 3.7) and Freecad 0.19 on a Windows 10 machine and it did work initially for a day or so. But now I always get "Unknown runtime error occurred while initiating FreeCAD" whenever I try to start FreeCad via the Anaconda Prompt. Tried several reboot...
