Global references are the global origin, axes, and planes shown in the modeling window. They can be helpful when creating and defining your model.
Learn about sketching basics including the sketch plane, legend, constraints, context menu options, and construction geometry.
Start a new sketch (S) and select a sketch plane.
Project selected geometry onto the sketch plane as construction geometry.
Extract curves resulting from the intersection of the sketch plane with selected parts or surfaces.
Sketch and edit a point, line, polyline (L), or line-arc.
