GcHorizontal

Works with Bricscad (Windows) Classic, Pro and Platinum, Bricscad (Linux) Classic, Pro and Platinum

Constrains lines, linear polyline segments or pairs of points to lie parallel to the X-axis of the current coordinate system.

This command is equivalent to the Horizontal option of the GEOMCONSTRAINT command.

Accessing the Command

Description

Entity

The selected line or linear polyline segment is forced to be parallel to the X-axis of the current coordinate system.

2Points

Select two valid constraint points on the same entity or on different entities.

The two selected points are forced to lie on a line which is parallel to the X-axis of the current coordinate system.
