  • Left-click to place a point without snapping, and right-click to snap to data.

  • Data selection and snapping  honors the current data selection and snap settings.

  • The string is only extended from the last point - the end of the string.

  • To extend the string from the other end, use undo-last-string-edit (to remove any unwanted extensions that have just been created) and reverse-string (to reverse the string point order) before running this command.
