This system variable can have a drastic effect on the appearance of offsets. It‟s stored in the registry so it affects all drawings. The initial value is 0.  1 Fills the gaps with a filleted arc segment (the radius of the arc segment... Read More

Place a circle, a slot, or a rectangle around each selected text or mtext object. The diameters of the circles can be constant or fitted to each object. The width and height of the slots and rectangles can be constant or variable. Menu : Text>... 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

When you add TEXT to a drawing, the current text style will be used. The text style determines the font, size, angle, orientation and other text characteristics. Every drawing has a default text style, which is named Standard. The Standard style can... Read More

Define custom properties for the dynamic block by specifying positions, distances, and angles for geometry in the block. You add parameters (BPARAMETER) to a dynamic block definition in the Block Editor. In the Block Editor (BEDIT), parameters have... Read More

Calculate distances and angles You can get information about the relation between two points by inquiring distance. You can get information as following: Distance = 1525.7461, Angle in XY Plane = 29, Angle from XY Plane = 0Delta X = 1332.6216, Delta... Read More

Polar tracking is used to display temporary alignment paths defined by the polar angles you specify, while you are creating or modifying objects. You can set the angle base (ANGBASE)direction in the Drawing Units dialog box. Alignment paths and... Read More
