Hi&nbsp;Karsten,&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;The&nbsp;standard&nbsp;exit&nbsp;function&nbsp;is&nbsp;double&nbsp;click&nbsp;to&nbsp;draw&nbsp;the&nbsp;last&nbsp;vertex.&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;Any&nbsp;question&nbsp;please&nbsp;let&nbsp;us&nbsp;know.&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;Regards,&nbsp;
