Close out of sketch without saving?

[Anonymous]

Not every sketch is a good idea and sometimes I have to cancel out of one. Sometimes I can accept then delete the sketch, and sometimes I can undo the sketch. But these aren't solutions. They're workarounds.

If I'm in mesh editing mode, clicking OK could mean a minute of waiting for computations to finish, even if no change has been made to the mesh. And when the computations are done, I risk errors that I can only undo, which means waiting another minute for the computations to go in reverse and then some. I've tried it.

And if I've made many changes in the sketch, then to undo means to click Ctrl-Z again and again and again...

Is there not a way to just cancel out of a sketch? 😕

Once you have entities, in your model sketch, the only way to Cancel the sketch I know of is to use the drop-down history of the Undo command and select Undo Create Sketch.  It the sketch contains a lot of entities, you may have to undo two or more chucks of the Undo list to get to the Undo Create Sketch entry.
