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

When you create objects in 3D, Cartesian, cylindrical or spherical coordinates are used to locate points. Enter X.Y.Z coordinates 3D Cartesian coordinates determine a precise location by using three coordinate values: X, Y, and Z. Entering 3D... Read More

By using the mouse or another pointing device, you can move a drawing to view the drawing object from different angles. When you activate 3D navigation  you can PAN and ZOOM at the same time. During a 3D navigation operation, it is not allowed to... Read More

To specify a point or angle in a model space, you can Choose a preset 3D view from the View toolbar. Enter a coordinate or angles that represent your viewing location in 3D. Change to a view of the XY plane of the current UCS , a saved UCS, or the... Read More
