Creating a profile

In our case, the profile consists of various teeth. Begin by drawing one of these teeth, which will be copied later to obtain the entire profile.

Creating a size-55 auxiliary line

1. Choose the option Line, by going to Geometry Create Line or by going to the GiD Toolbox.
2. Enter the coordinates of the beginning and end points of the auxiliary line. For our example, the coordinates are (0, 0) and (55, 0), respectively. Besides creating a straight line, this operation implies creating the end points of the line.
3. Press ESC to indicate that the process of creating the line is finished.
4. If the entire line does not appear on the screen, use the option Zoom Frame, which is located either in the GiD Toolbox or in Zoom on the mouse menu.

NOTE: The option Undo, located in Utilities Undo, enables the user to undo the most recent operations. When this option is activated, a window appears in which to select all the operations to be undone.
