The easiest way to draw in the Vectorworks program is to use the mouse. Select the appropriate tool button and create an object in either the click-drag or the click-click mode, depending on the type of object.
In click-drag mode, click and continue to hold down the mouse button while you create an object; release the button when the object is the desired size and shape.
In click-click mode, click the mouse to mark the start point of an object, and then click again at each of the object’s corners or vertices.
The program defaults to click-click mode, and all procedures in this guide are based on click-click drawing. This preference can be changed in Vectorworks preferences.
Use the Data bar for accurate object placement and creation. See Using the Data Bar.
