Line Rec Circle

The document provides information about basic drawing objects in AutoCAD, including lines, rectangles, and circles. It explains how to access the drawing commands via the command line, draw toolbar, or draw menu and describes the prompts users will encounter to specify parameters for each object type. Key points include: - Lines are drawn using the Line command and require specifying start and end points. - Rectangles use the Rectangle command and require specifying two corner points. Optional parameters like chamfer or fillet can be applied. - Circles are drawn with the Circle command by specifying a center point and radius or diameter. Alternate methods include 3 point, 2 point, or tangent options.

Basic Objects in AutoCAD

Draw tool bar used to access AutoCAD draw commands you can also use draw pull down menu or type the
command in command line. The draw commands create objects such as lines, rectangles, circles, arcs, and
ellipses.an object is the smallest component of the drawing. A drawing is made up of combinations of these
objects, when creating objects with draw commands, AutoCAD always prompt ask you to indicate points such
as endpoints, centers, radii, to describe size and location of the object to be drawn. Drawing commands can
be entered from the keyboard (command line), the draw toolbar, or the draw pull down menu.

1) Line

Draw Line simple lines or series of lines segments. access to command line by one way of the following:
1. Command Line: Line or L
2. Menu Bar: Draw Line
3. Draw Bar
When execute command line the program requires specify first point, display in command line:
• Specify first Point:
• Specify next point or [Undo]:
• Specify next point or [Close/Undo]:

Options:
• C: this option close series of lines, connect first point with last point by line.
• U: enter U for undo. AutoCAD backs up one segment, undoing it so that you can recreate it.
Example:
Draw the following figure in board its’ sides are (12×12 cm), note the figure start from the original point (0,0).

2) Rectangle

AutoCAD Provides the Rectangle command, which allows creating rectangles with perfect corners and as a
single object. Access the command by:
1. Command Line: Rectangle, Rec.
2. Menu Bar: Draw Rectangle.
3. Draw Bar
When enter command, the program require specify first corner:
Specify first corner point or [Chamfer/ Elevation / Fillet / Thickness / Width]:
Specify other corner Point:
Options:
• C: the chamfer command enables to place a chamfer at the rectangle corner. The distance specify is
the distance from the intersection of the two lines (the corner) to the start of the bevel, or chamfer.
You can set the chamfer distance for the two lines independently.
Specify first chamfer distance for rectangles<0.000>:
Specify second chamfer distance for rectangles<0.000>:

• E: identify high of rectangle (this option use in 3D drawings).


Specify the elevation for rectangles<0.000>:

• F: the fillet command creates both fillets and rounds on any combination of two lines, arcs, or
circles.
Specify fillet radius for rectangles<0.000>:
• T: identify thick of rectangle (this option use in 3D drawings)
Specify thickness rectangles<0.000>:

• W: rectangle can have a width (the default width is 0).


Specify line width for rectangles<0.000>:

Example:
Draw the Following figure, in board its’ sides are (52×52 m), note the figure is start from the point (1,1).

3) Circle

Provide Circle many ways to draw circles. Access the command from:
1. Command Line: Circle, C
2. Menu Bar: Draw Circle
3. Draw Bar
Display following message:
Specify center point for circle or [3P/2P/Ttr (tan tan radius)]:
Specify radius of circle or [Diameter]:D
Specify diameter of circle:
Options:
• 3P (3 point). the circle passes through all three points specified.
• 2P (2 point). the two points specify the location and diameter.
• Ttr (tan tan radius). specify two objects for the circle to be tangent to, then specify the radius.
• TTT. (Draw / Circle / Tan Tan Tan).
CIRCLE (Command)

Creates a circle.

The following prompts are displayed.

Center Point

Creates a circle based on a center point and a radius or diameter value.

Radius
Enter a value, or specify a point.

For example:

Diameter
Enter a value, or specify a second point.

For example:

3P (Three Points)

Creates a circle based on three points on the circumference.

For example:
Tan, Tan, Tan

Creates a circle tangent to three objects.

For example:

2P (Two Points)

Creates a circle based on two endpoints of the diameter.

For example:

TTR (Tangent, Tangent, Radius)

Creates a circle with a specified radius and tangent to two objects.

Sometimes more than one circle matches the specified criteria. The program draws the circle of the
specified radius whose tangent points are closest to the selected points.

For example:
Example:
Draw the Following figure in board its’ sides are (15x15cm). Note the point (0,0) is the center of the drawing.
