EXTRACTED KNOWLEDGE / HOW-TO FROM CONVERSATION

QUESTION / CONTEXT: how to stop solid works from drawing line points every time i hit enter in a sketch i swear it didn't used to do that

  1. Click = place a point
  2. Move + click = next segment
  3. Enter = “accept segment and start a new one”
  4. --
  5. ✅ Use `Esc` instead of Enter → this exits the line tool cleanly
  6. ✅ Or double-click to end the chain
  7. ❌ Avoid hitting Enter while sketching lines
  8. Look for “Single command per pick”
