Sketch plug-in

Sketch plug-in includes features for creation of 2D shapes.
The sketch creation takes the following steps:
First define a plane for the sketch:
-.. image:: images/PlaneDefinition.png
+.. figure:: images/PlaneDefinition.png
:align: center
- specify plane size (equal to 25 in the example above);
Note that coordinate planes will be suggested for selection if no convenient objects for plane selection are displayed in the viewer:
-.. image:: images/CoordinatePlanes.png
+.. figure:: images/CoordinatePlanes.png
:align: center
After the plane for sketch is selected, the following property panel will be opened:
-.. image:: images/SketchPanel.png
+.. figure:: images/SketchPanel.png
:align: center
-.. centered::
- Sketch general panel

- **Reversed** check box - allows reversing the sketch plane normal;
- **Set plane view** button - switches the viewer to the top view for the sketch plane;

.. _sketch_constraints:
If all degrees of freedom are eliminated, the sketch is fixed and displayed with green color.

If any degrees of freedom remain unsolved, the sketch is under-constrained and displayed with red color.

The plug-in includes the following constraints:
Sketcher comes into overconstrained state when an extra constraint was defined. The following picture shows an example of the overconstrained state:
