Step 3Draw 1 1/2" Square Rectangle

Draw 1 1/2\" Square Rectangle
Select the Rectangle by Two Corners tool.

Draw a Rectangle, about 1 ½" square; start with selecting the Origin (cursor will change to indicate that origin will be selected).

Move the cursor until the rectangle is shown to be about 1 ½" on each side. It is not necessary to create a rectangle exactly 1 ½" on each side, just create a figure of the approximate size.

Dimensioning the rectangle will determine the actual size; by just creating an approximately sized figure allows rapid sketch creation.. And until dimensioned, the figure can shift in size no matter if originally created by snapping to grid or with direct keyboard coordinate entry.
