cli panel¶
The integrated Command-Line Interface (CLI) provides a keyboard-driven environment for rapid scriptable geometric construction.
Accessing the CLI¶
Press the tilde key (~ or `` ` ) or click the terminal icon (``terminal) in the left sidebar to toggle the semi-transparent CLI overlay at the bottom of the screen.
Command Syntax¶
The CLI supports concise text syntax for defining all geometric primitives and derived structures:
Point Assignment¶
Explicit Label: Define a point with an explicit identifier:
A = 0, 0 B = 1, 0 C = 0.5, 0.866025Auto-Label: Create a point with auto-generated ID:
* 0, 0
Line Construction¶
Line Through Points: Construct an infinite line passing through points A and B:
[ A B ]
Circle Construction¶
Circle Center-Radius: Construct a circle centered at A passing through B:
( A B )
Polygon Construction¶
Polygon Bounds: Define a polygon bounded by vertices A, B, and C:
< A B C >
Linear Divisions & Sections¶
Segment: Define a segment between A and B:
/ A B /Section: Define a collinear section through points A, B, and C:
/ A B C /
Wedges¶
Wedge Angle: Define a wedge bounded by points A, B, and C:
< A B C )
