Lezione su Sketcher
Introduzione
L'utente chrisb ha scritto una Lezione su Sketcher di oltre 80 pagine. Questo è un manuale di riferimento per l'ambiente Sketcher che tratta molti argomenti relativi al suo utilizzo. Per gli utenti inesperti, si tratta di un'introduzione che copre l'uso di base di Sketcher, quindi approfondisce la creazione di elementi geometrici e l'utilizzo di ogni tipo di vincolo.
Il manuale è in costante evoluzione, in quanto alcune sezioni vengono riviste e aggiornate in base allo sviluppo che si verifica in Sketcher. Il manuale originale è stato scritto per FreeCAD 0.17, poi è stato aggiornato per 0.18 e per 0.19. L'ultimo manuale è disponibile nel forum, Tutorial di Sketcher.
