I don't know why it took me this long to learn this. It'sprobably in the help system or What's New somewhere.
When exiting a sketch, I've always moved the mouse up to the topright corner and clicked on the "pencil with a bent purple arrow"icon. I think that icon means "exit sketch".
While watching the Model Mania how-to presentation, I noted thatthe "double click in a blank area on the Graphics Window" trick wasused to exit the sketch, saving a significant amount of mousemotion.
