Operations in the Construction View

The construction view is shown by pressing the () button on the toolbar. This view is used to draw the 2D area to be extruded. The basic operations involve defining points and edges that can be made into blocks, defining and meshing the blocks. It is also possible to import a bitmap or DXF image that can be used to trace or otherwise guide the 2D rendering operations.
