Continue mode

1. Make sure there is no selection.
2. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
   • introduced in 1.0: If the Unified tool for automatic horizontal/vertical constraints preference is selected (default): press the down arrow to the right of the button and select the Horizontal Constraint option from the dropdown.
   • If this preference is not selected (and in 0.21 and below): press the Horizontal Constraint button.
   • Select the Sketch → Constraints → Horizontal Constraint option from the menu.
   • Use the keyboard shortcut: H.
3. The cursor changes to a cross with the tool icon.
4. Do one of the following:
   • Select two points.
   • Select a single line.
5. A constraint is added.
6. Optionally keep creating constraints.
7. To finish, right-click or press Esc, or start another geometry or constraint creation tool.

Run-once mode

1. Do one of the following:
   • Select two or more points.
   • Select one or more lines. Points can be included in the selection, but will be ignored.
2. Invoke the tool as described above, or with one of the following additional options:
   • introduced in 1.0: Right-click in the 3D View and select the Horizontal Constraint option from the context menu.
   • Right-click in the Elements section of the Sketcher Dialog and select the Horizontal Constraint option from the context menu.
3. Depending on the selection one or more constraints are added.

Scripting

Sketch.addConstraint(Sketcher.Constraint('Horizontal', Line))

The Sketcher scripting page explains the values which can be used for Line and contains further examples on how to create constraints from Python scripts.
