  3. Click the first line (A), and then click the second line (B).

    The centerline appears midway between the two lines (C).

Tip:

  • If you select the By 2 Points option from the Placement Options list, you can place a centerline in one of the following positions:

    • Between two key points on an element. You click two points (A, B) and then click to place the centerline (C).

    • Between two center marks.

    • In free space.

  • You can modify a centerline by dragging the edit handles on the centerline. You can also cut, copy, or paste a centerline. When you drag the centerline away from the element it is attached to, the centerline no longer has a relationship to that element.

  • You can change the appearance of the centerline by changing its properties. Select the centerline and then click Properties on the shortcut menu.
