Description
Toggles on or off snapping to the active string to a perpendicular of another, string (if possible).
How to Use
Snaps the current, active string to a perpendicular of another, string (if possible).
Draw or extend a string using the left mouse button then, to activate the perpendicular, right-click close to where the perpendicular line should end. A perpendicular will only be drawn to a string. The string segment closest to the cursor when the mouse was right-clicked is located and a check is made for whether a perpendicular is possible or not. If no perpendicular is possible, an error message will be displayed in the status bar.
Note: snap to lines must be in operation for this function to work. This command will not operate is point snapping is active.
