19. Orthogonal Drawing in AutoCAD

Orthogonal (rectangular) drawing in AutoCAD


This is a drawing-art facility, with a view to drawing more positions and the view is 90 °.
Just draw a background for rendering (ORTHO mode) using a mouse makes it easier to just draw and provides a rectangular relationship between the two lines at a certain disabilities that make the intersection of the Coordinate System.

In the beginning of this web site I noted that there is a plane in 2D coordinate system and the XY plane and three in the 3D coordinate system XY, YZ and XZ.

So to conclude immediately, orthogonal drawing in AutoCAD drawing of the three-dimensional (3D) in one plane with the ability to change views on other planes at 90 °. (DWG DOWNLOAD HERE ). Unzipf file and run in AutoCAD, turn ON the 3D Orbit View and try to Rotate the drawing and see the different views.

If you want to orthogonal drawing can also use the ORTHO mode for drawing lines in a right relationship. To draw a background for rendering it is necessary to activate the function button for ORTHO mode.

Orthogonal drawing is linked to the orthographic projection views of the drawing. When drawing in 3D you'll be using the toolbar on the VIEW that contains buttons (icons) for different views of the drawings in a particular plane.

These views have titles as follows:

  1. Top - top view (plane X-Y)
  2. Bottom - view of bottom (X-Y plane)
  3. Left - View from the Left (Y-Z plane)
  4. Right - view from right (plane Y-Z)
  5. Front - front view (X-Z plane)
  6. Back - back view (the plane Y-Z)

Positioning in each of these views (the plane) you can use drawing background for rendering. Just need to switch to a particular view or to the plane and you can draw with a two-dimensional coordinates.

I am drawing for 3D always begin by clicking the top that I had a view from above (but it all depends on what you draw). For example: if you draw a house project, then it is advisable to start from the house plan that is best seen in top view from above.

In the picture below note the widespread views of a 3D body by the European schedule of views on the subject (usually used following views: Layout, design and side elevation).

When working in AutoCAD you can set multiple views (viewports) on the drawing (3D).

This is done via a text menu View => Viewports => 4 Viewports (or New Viewports).

Or in a different schedule when you draw (note that I have shown Realistic View, for easy identification viewing the drawing).

15-13a. AutoCAD Export Coordinates Points to CSV

Image
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

Image
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 ...
