Replace unfinished geometry

The Replace Sketch command replaces the geometry of an unfinished feature with the geometry of another feature. This command is available while you draw a feature using a feature construction tool and right-click a finished feature.

When you use this tool, consider the following:

• The source feature must be the same geometry type as the unfinished feature you are drawing.
• The geometry that is copied to the unfinished feature is placed over the source feature.

To replace the geometry of an unfinished feature, complete the following steps:

1. Create at least two unfinished segments using a polyline or polygon feature construction tool.
2. Right-click a finished feature containing the geometry you want to copy, and click Replace Sketch .

   The geometry is copied to the unfinished feature and placed over the source feature.

3. To finish the feature, click Finish , or press the F2 key.

   Tip:

   Use the Move tool to move the new feature.
