OnRequest™ Support: Tool Palette

Copy Tool
The Copy Tool is used to duplicate objects in a drawing.

Copy - copies an object to a specified point.

Continual Copy - makes additional copies of the object with each mouse click. HINT: Depress and hold the shift key to constrain the copy process to a horizontal or 45 degree orientation.
Repeat n… - makes “n” (where “n” is a specified number) additional copies of the object. Each successive copy is placed the same distance and direction as the preceding copy.


Move Tool
The Move Tool is used to move an object to a specified position in the drawing.

To move an object: First pick a point on the object and then pick a second point in the drawing .

To align objects horizontally or vertically, use:

Plumb Line - aligns objects along a vertical line.

Level Line - aligns objects along a horizontal line.


Delete Tool
The Delete Tool is used to erase/eliminate objects from a drawing.

Undo All - to undo all the deletions that have been made since choosing the Delete Tool.

Confirm - when confirm is selected, OnRequest™ gives a warning when it is making deletions in a drawing. If the Confirm option is not selected, OnRequest™ will not give a warning.


Scale Tool
The Scale Tool is used to resize objects.

Scale by Factor - scales an object by a specified factor or percentage.

Scale From/To - scales an object from a given size to a specified size.


Rotate Tool
The Rotate/Mirror tool is used to rotate objects by picking a center of rotation and specifying how much to rotate the object. The Mirror tool is used to create a reflection of an object
across a line.

Rotate by Angle - rotates an object by a specified angle. A positive angle will rotate the object counterclockwise and a negative angle will rotate the object clockwise.

Flip about Horizontal/Vertical Axis - Flip about Horizontal mirrors an object across a horizontal point (axis) and Flip about Vertical mirrors an object along a vertical axis.

Rotate from/to – Rotates an object from the current position to match the angle of an existing object.


Constraint Menu
This menu is found in the lower left corner of the drawing next to the Layers menu. The Constraint Menu dictates the way the tools on the tool palette behave. You can have items that are moved and/or copied constrained to a specific direction or angle.


Re-sizing Handles:
An object such as an exit route line can be stretched using its re-sizing handles.

• Select the line
• Depress and hold the F2 key (Windows) or the CTRL and Option keys (MacIntosh)
• Click on a re-sizing handle and release the left mouse button
• Release the F2 key
• Hold down the Shift key to constrain the line to a horizontal or vertical position
• Re-size as needed
