Click and Do is a tool that allows quick creation of objects based on the contours of existing objects (or on a combination of them).
The tool creates an object, of the type you have selected, based on what is visible at the place where you click.
The object is completely created: main contour, holes, etc. and is generated automatically.
How to create objects using Click and Do digitizing?
➢Click on CREATE OBJECT, on the MAIN bar and select, for example, the AREA + SINGLE BLING UNIFORM FILL style. You can select the object type from the tooltab BLING or through the drop-down menu on the CREATE OBJECT arrow. |

➢Within the Digitizing Methods tooltab group, select Click and Do |

Let's suppose that in our design there are some objects, such as those shown on the left of the image. Note: The tool creates the object exactly at the same position where original contours are. In the example, we have moved the created objects for clarity. ➢By clicking outside the hole of object 1, we will get the object 2 (identical to object 1) and if we click inside the hole, the tool will create the object 3. ➢By clicking on the object 4, we will get the object 6, and by clicking in the region between objects 4 and 5, the tool will create the object 7. ➢If we click inside the interior region limited by the three objects 8, 9 and 10, the tool will create the object 11. Let's notice that the tool has used a combination of the contours of the three objects and we do not even need to group them. |

•The tool is able to use the contours of existing vector images (figures) and bling objects
•The tool does not work with raster images
