If Sticky is set for many draw line and curve objects, after the object is created, precise dimensions can be entered to alter the new object, before it is completed either with a Space or Return or Tab or by selecting a new operation.

The Polygon and PolyLine shapes are finished by pressing the Space or Return Tab key or by selecting another operation. Before they are finished, precise dimensions can be entered for the last side drawn. All Polylines and Polygons must have more than 2 corners to be created successfully.

Note that Section 2.2.8 can be used on a Polygon or a Polyline after it has been finished to alter individual points and to make them curved or rounded points.
