Bridging

• Bridges in Sheet Metal are for users who want a connector to a secondary point either through the outline of text, or within a hole of some kind.

• Bridges can be made through any line, including lines from path text.

• If the "Two Point Select" option is selected, enter a width in the "Width:" field to determine how wide the bridge will be. Click the start and end points of the bridge to create it.

• To turn off automatic trimming, uncheck the Auto-Trim check box.

• To manually enter the distance and angle of the end point of the bridge, uncheck the "Two Point Select" check box and enter the values in the "Length:" and "Angle:" fields. Click a point to set it as the start point.

• (Note) Go to the Sheet Metal Text tutorial page to see how it is used in full.
