## Overview

The Draw tool allows users to create visual elements—such as lines, circles, and shapes—within the SiEGA environment.

## How to Use

To get started, open the Draw tool by selecting it from the main toolbar on the right side of your screen. Once activated, you'll see a set of drawing options.

You will see multiple drawing options including:

* **Line**: Create straight lines between two points to mark or connect elements in the environment.
* **Landing Line**: Draw lines that conform to the terrain or surface beneath them—ideal for visualizing paths or routes over varied elevation like hills or mountains.
* **Curve**: Place multiple points to create a smooth, curved line for flexible annotations.
* **Circle**: Draw circular shapes by clicking to define the center and dragging to set the radius.
* **Polygon:** Create multi-point closed shapes to highlight or frame specific areas.
* **Undo**: Remove the most recently placed shape or point from your current drawing.
* **Clear All**: Erase all existing drawings from the scene.

To add a drawing to the environment, start by selecting one of the available options. Use left-click to place each point in the scene. Once you've finished placing all desired points or defining the shape, press left-shift to confirm and finalize the drawing.
