This function is used to modify text height, text width, text angle and text position. You can click or select characters by window selection. Menu : Express>Text Tools>Others>Change Text Height/Width/Angle/Position Command Entry : TXTHEI... Read More

The current LINETYPE is shown in the Linetype control on the Properties toolbar and all objects you draw will use the current linetype. You can also set the current linetype with the Linetype control. If you set current linetype to BYLAYER, all... Read More

Change a text object's justification without changing its position. Works with text, mtext, and attribute definition objects. Menu : Text >Others>Justify Text Command Entry : TJUST or JUSTIFYTEXT Select objects: Use an object selection... Read More

You can create blocks by selecting objects, specifying a name and base point. You can also create TEXT information as attributes of blocks. You can define a blocks by BLOCK , insert a DWG/DXF file, COPYCLIP and paste as BLOCK , or binding an XREF... Read More

Current layer settings can be saved to a layer state, which can be changed and its layer settings restored to the drawing later. Save Layer States Layer states like on or locked and layer properties (LAYER) are all layer settings, which can be saved... Read More

Linear, angular, radial, ordinate and arc length are the basic types of dimensions. You can create dimensions for selected existing entities by selecting them or picking points within a drawing. Linear dimensions can be horizontal, vertical, aligned,... Read More

An ordinate dimension annotates the perpendicular distance from an origin or base point (the origin of the current UCS). Ordinate dimensions consist of an x- or y-coordinate and a leader. The ordinate dimension text is always aligned with the... Read More

Angular dimensions measure the angle between two lines or three points. You can also measure angle of an arc or angle between two radius of circle. You can add a baseline dimension or a continued dimension after you created an angular dimension. Read More

Every object has properties. Some PROPERTIES are general and apply to most objects; for example, LAYER , COLOR , LINETYPE , lineweight (LWEIGHT) and PLOTSTYLE . Most general properties can be assigned to an object by layer or can be assigned to... Read More

To improve drawing efficiency, you can display a rectangular grid and snap it. You can also control its spacing, type and behavior. The grid helps you align objects and determine the distances between them. When SNAP mode is on, the movement of the... Read More
