If the user sets immediately a point, he can use the construction line for two points. Clicking on enter or on the mouse's right button, the user can use the parallel construction line, or he can select any option to use the associated command. When the user ends the command with the ESC button, a new selection of types of construction line will be displayed until the user will not interrupt the command.
