Linear dimensions can be created with horizontal, vertical and aligned dimension lines. They can also be stacked or created end to end. Create Horizontal and Vertical Dimensions A horizontal or vertical dimension can be created according to the... Read More

The TORIENT command is used to aligns text, mtext and block attribute objects to new orientation. Rotates text, mtext, and attribute definition objects so that they end up being as close as possible to horizontal or right-read (similar to the... Read More

The DIMJOGLINE command is used to add or remove a jog line in a linear or aligned dimension. Command Access: Ribbon : Annotation > Dimension > DIMJOGLINEMenu : Dimension > Jogged LinearCommand : DIMJOGLINE Command Prompts: Select dimension... Read More

ALIGN command is often overlooked by many CAD users. Instead of using move, rotate, and scale commands separately, you can do it at once using this tool. With ALIGN you can move, rotate and scale an object while aligning it with existing geometry or... Read More

Modify the grips' number of the Polar parameter in the section symbol dynamic block in the last example to display both of the two grips of the Polar parameter. From the following picture we can see that the central grip is clearly different... Read More

In this section, we are going to use a rotation parameter and rotate action to add a dynamic rotate function to view index symbols (English system) which are frequently used in architectural drawings. 1. Draw a drawing Draw a view index symbol and... Read More

Scale Action can be matched with the Linear Parameter, Polar and XY Parameter to achieve various Dynamic effects. Linear Scale 1.Draw Finish drawing an access hole in a model space and define it as a block, as shown in the following picture.   2... Read More
