15-3. Drawing CONSTRUCTION LINE in AutoCAD

How to Draw a Construction Line using a Mouse in AutoCAD step by step


Construction Line in AutoCAD
Construction Line command to draw a line across the entire desktop art and can be used as an extra in one color and then delete it. For this purpose, you can create a new Layer and call it Construction Layer. After completion of Construction line drawing, press the Escape (ESC) to you finished drawing that is dropped from further drawing these lines. The command has been active in drawing and we can draw more lines and the drawing is finished with ENTER.

Note the command line prompt at [Hor/Ver/Ang/Bisect/Offset] sub-command.

Drawing CONSTRUCTION LINE begin by clicking on a toolbar button or type the command DRAW Xline in Command prompt.
After running the commands with the mouse we have the ability to draw the line or use the clause in the command line prompt. The first letters of the clause to apply the same (not always the rule, but generally point in CAPITAL LETTERS and it could be more)

Hor - Horizontal - Enter the letter H (h) appears in line and then click on a location (point) where we draw the line

Ver - Vertical - Type the letter V (v) appears in line and then click on a location (point) where we draw the line

Ang - Angle - Enter the letter A (a) and then again in the Command Line have a question which angle we want. As soon as we entered the corner appeared to us a line on the desktop and then you click on a particular point where we want to set. The command is still active and can click on the next point to set up a new line at the same angle.

OFFSET- Offset line in AutoCAD, this command serves to draw the line Structural parallel to a line in the drawing but get away for a certain number of units.

About OFFSET commands, see the link OFFSET toolbar MODIFY (visit Home Content of this Blog).

Draw Construction Lines with RAY Command

RAY command is similar to the Construction Line command in AutoCAD.
Construction Line air line on both sides of the starting point of a ray line command line (the air at infinity) in the direction specified by clicking the starting point.

This command is active, and we draw the line until you press Enter. When you draw the Line Command RAY ended it by pressing the ENTER key.

15-13a. AutoCAD Export Coordinates Points to CSV

How to Export Coordinates of Points Using LISP to AutoCAD Since this web tutorial is intended for beginners, here I will describe how to export Coordinates for specific points in the drawing. Take for example that the drawings have points that are set to specific coordinates (this is quite used in geodesy, but mostly  MAP CAD programs  and some already have built-in  LISP  Export programs). In the picture below, notice that I have created several points on the desktop. Note that with the cursor I have an extra cloud with the coordinate position if I click on the position where the cursor is currently located. (this cloud can be switched on/off at the  DYN  button (dynamic input) How to use LISP? To use this option ( export coordinates to CSV file ), a file that has the extension ' * .lsp ' is used. This so-called scripted code needs to be copied to the "some" folder. Usually this is the  AutoCAD folder  that contains other files with...

24d. Plot in Color Thickness Lines

How to Plot in Color and Thickness of Lines on printed paper in AutoCAD. If you probably have a problem with the  Thickness Line  (not to say the width of the line because some use this expression) on the drawing or the  Color Line  on the drawing. If you are asking any of the following questions: Why are all the lines of the same thickness? How to change the thickness of the line on the drawing we print to the printer (plotting on the plotter)? AutoCAD does not print Color on the drawing? Why these questions? Well there is reason. Print black and white drawings are done over pre-prepared  CTB file  (also in color). To have the lines do not look like a toe, you need to experiment with the thickness of the line. If you want to print a drawing Floor plan of a building and you want to distinguish it from outer walls of interior, portions of drawings that display windows, doors and the like. Then you will set different line thicknesses in the...

24c. Ucsfollow Command Rotate Drawing

Rotating Drawing MODEL in AutoCAD - Ucsfollow Command In the previous tutorial, I showed how to  Rotate the drawing within the Constituent/Component . Here is the possibility of Rotating the other way when Plotting Drawings. This method of Rotating images in Layout Model when plotting is often used in geodesy at plotting KCBR (particles) that copies of the cadastral plan, if the particles are bigger in size than A4 paper and can't fit into the framework of Model Layout. (eg, a plan was drawn at a scale of 1:2000 and we have plot on A4 paper, and " Plot scale " scale 1:1, in fact, we print it on paper dimensions are in scale 1:2000) That they would not plot on tracing paper A3 sometimes it is enough to rotate a drawing that plan and the rotation of the entire plan, a particle can be placed within the model. When rotating the drawing in  Layout Model/Paper  should bear in mind that the drawing in our real model does not rotate, no matter what we rotate conducted within ...
