How to make a 2d wiring diagram to keep a record of what wire goes where

Hi, I am looking for a 2d diagram tool to keep a record of our wires for our FTC robot.

Is it possible to do this using the Onshape tools ?

Thanks.

    You could do this with the Freeform Spline and Wire custom features by @Evan_Reese. While these aren't specifically 2D, you can keep them on one plane, essentially making it 2D.

    The spline feature lets you route the wire, or you could just draw a sketch. The wire feature keeps track of the size of wire and the lengths. It will generate a table over on the right side of the screen if you click the custom tables panel.
