Unit -1

• The Computer Aided Drafting and its software

Definition of Computer Aided Drafting, the Advantages and importance of CAD software LIKE Auto CAD, Intelli Cad, ProG CAD etc., the features of Graphic Work station, CAD Environment: Screen, Various tool bars and menus.

• Selection of commands

Commands using toolbars, menus, command bar. Repeating a command, Nesting a command and modifying a command.Use of prompt history window and scripts, mouse shortcuts.Creating the drawing.Opening existing and, saving of drawing, setting up a drawing. Setting and changing the grid and snapping alignment, and the Entity snaps.

• Use of viewing tools of CAD & Use of coordinate systems of the drawing

Use of mouse, Scroll bar to move around within drawing, changing of magnification of drawing. Displaying of multiple views, the use of controlling visual elements like Line weight. Two dimensional coordinates such as Absolute, Cartesian, Relative Cartesian and Polar coordinates and direct method of drawing line.

• Creating simple and complex entities

Drawing of lines, circles, arcs, ellipses, elliptical arcs, rays and infinite lines. Creating and editing of point entities. Drawing of shapes like rectangles, polygons, polylines, Splines, donuts, and adding of hatch pattern

• Use the Modifying tools to modify the properties of entities

Entity selection and de selection methods, the Deletion of entities.Copying of entities within a drawing, between drawings, parallel copies, Mirroring entities and arraying entities.The Rearranging of entities by Moving, Rotating and Reordering.The Resizing of entities by Stretching, Scaling, Extending, Trimming, and editing the length.The Braking and joining of entities. Editing of polylines: The Exploding of entities, the Chamfering and Filleting of entities

• Use the drawing information retrieving tools Measure, Divide, Calculate and Display

Measuring the intervals on entities, dividing the entities in to segments. Calculation of areas of defined by points, closed entities, and combined entities, calculate the distance and angle between the entities. Displaying the information about the entities and drawing status.
