Creates Bench-work using different types and orientation of lumber.
With MagneticSnap (Section 2.12.1) enabled, the new line start position will snap to the nearest draw object, as shown by the anchor unless Alt is held down. If it is disabled, it will only snap if Alt is held. If GridSnap is enabled and MagneticSnap does not find a postion, the first position will snap to the Grid. This is suppressed if Alt is held.
If Ctrl is held down during Left+Drag the line will snap the angle of the new side to a multiple of 90 degrees.
If Sticky is set for straight draw, after the benchwork is drawn there will be two text fields on the bottom rail, to allow fine-tuning of the angle and the length. Pressing Enter or Tab with the cursor in these boxes will apply the value to the benchwork. Pressing Space or Enter or Tab on the drawing surface will move to drawing a new benchwork line. Pressing Shift+Tab on the drawing surface will remove the current object and allow a new one to be drawn. Even if Esc is pressed, the benchwork will already exist, it can be removed with Undo.
