Cyclic lines
Cycles2 points to clickRepeats a vertical line at a fixed interval.
What it looks like
The numbered dots are where you click. Once drawn, you can grab those dots and move them.
How to draw it
Click two places to set the length of one cycle; verticals then repeat at that spacing to the right.
When to use it
The tool does not prove a cycle exists — it is a ruler you line up by eye.
In SQMATE
What you draw stays
Lines you draw are saved to that symbol's notebook. Open the symbol again and they are still there.
Editable afterwards
Grab the points to move them, and change colour, width and line style. Undo works too.
Shares as drawn
