    The tool used to create strokes is in Tools -> Utilities -> Stroke Editor

    The strokes are actioned by holding down the CTRL key and acting the stroke with the mouse's right hand button pressed.

    The strokes file is stored within the PCBENV directory and is named allegro.strokes.

    Don't forget to set no_zoom_to_object as enable
    In Setup>User Preferences..., and in Input categories.
