Snippets

If you find yourself placing the same group of objects over and over, snippets let you save any part of a drawing and reuse it whenever you need it.

How to Create a Snippet

1. Select the objects in your drawing that you want to save.
2. Go to Edit → Save as Snippet.
3. Give it a name in the dialog. You can organize snippets into groups to keep things tidy.

How to Use a Snippet

1. Go to Insert → Snippet.
2. A dialog opens showing your saved snippets.
3. Double-click a snippet to insert it, or select it and click OK.

How to Delete a Snippet

Select the snippet in the dialog and press Delete.
