In the classic user interface, you can use the Redline Tools dockable window to add redlines, and tags.
The Thickness and Color controls enable you to modify the redline settings. These changes do not affect already
drawn redlines. Also, thickness only applies to lines; it does not affect redline text, which has a default size and
weight and cannot be modified.
All redlines can only be added to a saved viewpoint or to a clash result which has a saved viewpoint. If you don’t
have any saved viewpoints, adding a tag will automatically create and save a viewpoint for you.
You can also convert measurements to redlines. For more information, see “
Measuring” on page 249.
