Sketch Projection Reference

Projecting an element into a sketch is only half the job, you still have to go back and mark it as a reference before it stops interfering with your profile. Sketch Projection Reference skips the second trip entirely: select, and the result lands in your sketch already set as a construction reference.

What it does

• Creates a sketch reference in one action, projection and reference conversion happen back to back, with no separate follow-up step.
• Keeps your sketch clean by default, the projected geometry never sits around as regular, contributing geometry waiting to be fixed.
• Works with whatever you’ve already selected, pick the element you want to reference and go, without hunting through separate commands.

How It Works

Select one or more elements to use as references and launch the command. The tool automatically projects the geometry into the active sketch and converts the result into construction geometry. The reference is immediately available for dimensioning and sketch creation without any additional manual steps.

Where it fits

Included from the Starter plan up, so it’s available no matter which tier your team is on. It suits anyone who projects reference geometry into sketches regularly, a small, repeated step that’s easy to standardize once and stop thinking about.
