To Apply a Parallel 2D Constraint

  1. Select the Parallel 2D Constraint tool ( Drawing > Constraints > 2D ).

  2. Select a linear or an elliptical segment.
  3. Select another linear or elliptical segment.

    The two selected segments are now parallel to each other. In case of elliptical segment, the axis of the ellipse participates in the process.

    Note: For two segments to be parallel, they must be on the same plane.

    Parallel 2D constraint applied between elements. Left: between two linear segments. Right: between a linear segment and an ellipse. Bottom: between two ellipses.
