Setting up of drawing environment by setting drawing limits, drawing units, naming the drawing,
naming layers, setting line types for different layers using various type of lines in engineering draw-
ing, saving the file with .dwg extension. And Auto CAD Commands
Measuring Commands
GRID: Displays a grid of dots at a desired spacing on the screen.
Command: GRID (enter)
On/Off/Tick spacing(x)/Aspect: (enter value) (enter)
SNAP: Specifies a "round off" interval so that points entered with the mouse can be locked into
alignment with the grid spacing.
Command: SNAP (enter)
On/Off/Value/Aspect/Rotate/Style: (enter value) (enter)
ARC: Draws an arc (any part of a circle or curve) through three known points.
Command: ARC (enter)
Center/ < Start point > : (pick the first point on the arc)
Center/End/ < Second point > : C
Center: (pick the arc's center point)
Angle/Length of chord/ <End point > : (pick the arc endpoint)
Display Commands
LIMITS: Sets the size of the drawing paper. For size "A" drawing paper the limits should be set for
10.5 x 8.
Command: LIMITS (enter)
On/Off/Lower left corner <0.0000> (enter)
Upper right corner: 10.5,8 (enter)
Note: To return the picture to its original viewing size enter ALL and press the enter key when prompted instead
of defining a window.
PAN: Allows you to move your view point around the drawing without changing the magnification factor.
Command: PAN (enter)
Editing Commands
CHANGE: Alters properties of selected objects
Command: CHANGE (enter)
Select objects or window or Last (select objects to be changed)
Properties/<Change point>: (type P)
Change what property (Color/Elev/LAyer/LType/Thickness)? (type Layer)
New Layer: (enter new layer name and press enter)
Experiment No. 1
GRIPS
You can edit selected objects by manipulating grips that appear at defining points on the object. Grips is not a command. To
activate grips simply pick the object. Small squares will appear at various entity-specific positions. By selecting an end grip you
can stretch the entity to change its size. By selecting the center grip you can move the entity to a new location. To remove grips
press CTL-C twice. You can perform the following using grips: Copy, Multiple Copy, Stretch, Move, Rotate, Scale, and Mirror.
Creating Layers
LAYER: Creates named drawing layers and assigns color and linetype properties to those layers.
Command: LAYER (enter)
A Layer & Linetype Properties dialog box will be displayed. To add a new layer, pick the New button. A new
layer listing appears, using a default name of Layer1. the layer name can be changed by highlighting the layer
name. Colors and Linetypes can be assigned to each new layer by picking the color box to assign a color and
picking the linetype box to assign a line type.
Construction Commands
ARRAY: Makes multiple copies of selected objects in a rectangular or circular pattern
Command: ARRAY (enter)
Select objects or Window or Last: (select object to array)
Rectangular or Polar array (R/P) <current>: (P)
Center point of array: (pick the point around which to form the array)
Angle to fill (+=CCW, -=Cw) <360>: (enter)
OFFSET: Constructs an entity parallel to another entity at a specified distance. Offset can be used with
lines, circles, arcs, and polylines.
Command: OFFSET (enter)
Offset distance or Through <last>: (enter a distance value)
Select object to offset: (select object to offset)
Side to offset: (Pick any point on the side of the object you wish to offset)
Summary of Options
<Start Point> Left-Justifies text along its baseline
Justify Justifies text according to the alignment options
Style Enters a new text style
Null reply Enters a new line of text below the previous text.
(space or Enter key will give a Null reply)
