_Some shortcuts used in this video:_
S key - brings up *Shortcut Bar*
Hold Right Mouse Button and swipe the Mouse - *Mouse Gestures* shortcuts
Hold CTRL key when selecting multiple lines to quickly add relations between them

best demonstration of 3D drawing I have seem yet. Simple and too the point with good details

Thank you for this vid! Your efforts are appreciated, most likely by many more than just me or the thirty thumbs-up ya got so far. Some of the things I already knew, but it is a great refresher and a pleasant one that is so easy to watch and follow. Well done.

Great video. Great information. So nice to be able to understand what is being said as opposed to the hundreds of videos existing where the english is so broken with heavy indian accent.

Any idea of what the differences are for a 3D Sketch in SW 2020? I can't even do the first step of defining a rectangle on the zx plane, it will still rotate through all 3 planes. Is there a setting that I'm missing?

At 2:44, how do you even move the line? I draw the exact same thing, but when I click on the point, it's not moving.

Can i turn on ortho mode in solidworks while sketching

[mohammedumar]

First of all thanks.
What is the purpose of 3D sketch can we make part modelling by 3D sketch ?

[tonymolloy]

good tutorial thanks . when I sketch the construction rectangle and smart dimension the drawing is still under defined . any ideas on what I'm doing wrong ?

So - basically 3d sketching is like making a skeleton model?

[samwise]

Just a suggestion, when making a 'basics' video, using a ton of unannounced shortcut keys is not a great idea.

Holy shit this would help if you actually told us what to click 0:36 idk how tf opened this
