Point Tool

BR532
Hello. New to the forum and somewhat new to LibreCad but enjoying the application as I learn. Curious to see how people use the dedicated Points tool and looking for some examples. I understand it inserts a single point in a drawing but wondering in what ways would that be useful verses points that are inserted when creating lines, circles and other objects you naturally do as part of a drawing?

Hi,

I use the point tool for a couple of things:
1.  When I need a 'fixed' reference point (typically on a construction layer) to locate multiple entities from something other than 0,0 or the relative zero.
2.  A point with a wide line thickness, such as 2.0 mm, to indicate a location pin or similar datum on a drawing (visible in Print Preview):
