The New Linear tool allows you to create a Linear digitized takeoff item on your plan. The New Linear tool is very easy to use, just set the Properties and then click two or more points on your plan.
1. Select Linear to open the linear Properties window.
2. In this window, you can name your Linear item and choose a color for it. PlanSwift automatically picks a random color; if you would like a different color, simply click the drop-down menu under Color.
3. When you are finished setting the properties, select the OK button to continue.
Make sure your page is scaled; if not, PlanSwift will automatically open the the Scale window window.
Notice that the Digitizer Record button is red; this indicates that the on-screen digitizer is now working.

5. End the on-screen digitizer by pressing Esc or by clicking the Digitizer Record button.
