     19* Use left mouse button clicks or drags to create draft contour.
     20* {{{Ctrl+Click}}} adds '''fixed point''' that will  not be affected by simplification; you may use it for corners or other significant parts of shape but this is not required.
     21* When dragging over existing nodes, they are included in new line automatically.
     22* Clicking on the first point makes the line closed (no more adding points).
     23
     24=== Editing in drawing mode ===
     25
     26* {{{Backspace}}} - delete last added node, then previous etc.
     27* {{{Ctrl+Shift+Click}}} - clears the sketch and start new one.
     28* {{{Ctrl+Click}}} on fixed node makes it free, {{{Ctrl+Click}}} on free node makes it fixed (see marks).
     29* {{{Shift+Click}}} - delete selected node (marked by red X) or selected '''fragment'''. Fragment is a line between two fixed nodes.
     30* After deletion of the fragment you can '''redraw''' it by mouse from the beginning to the end (active segment marked orange).
