Asking the local assistant

Describe a shape or a change and check the preview before applying it.

3 min
01

Open Help → Local assistant or press Ctrl+Shift+J. The panel opens beside the stage. The assistant runs on your computer: your request is not sent over the internet.

02

Write one request at a time, in Portuguese or English: blue circle in the center, rectangle 200x100 or rotate the selection 30 degrees. To change a drawing, select it first with V.

03

Use Interpret request or Ctrl+Enter. The panel shows a preview of the result and how many commands the plan holds.

04

Check the preview and use Apply suggested action. The change becomes a single edit in the history, and Ctrl+Z undoes it. To discard the preview, use Cancel request or discard preview.

05

If the request is beyond what the assistant can do, it says so and changes nothing. Describe a direct editor action or use the shortcuts.
