To work with Ellipse

To work with ellipse:

    Shape of ellipse is detemined by two lengths i.e length along major axis, length along minor axis.

To draw true ellipse by specifying 3 points:

Command: EL ELLIPSE

Specify axis endpoint of ellipse or [Arc/Center]: Click for the first end point on the axis of ellipse.

Specify other endpoint of axis: Click for the second end point on the axis of ellipse.

Specify distance to other axis or [Rotation]: Click for the point on other axis. this distance will be have of your axis length.

To draw an elliptical arc:

Command: EL
ELLIPSE
Specify axis endpoint of ellipse or [Arc/Center]: a //This will prompt AutoCAD to draw an elliptical arc.

Specify axis endpoint of elliptical arc or [Center]: Click for the first end point on the axis of ellipse.

Specify other endpoint of axis: Click for the second end point on the axis of ellipse.

Specify distance to other axis or [Rotation]:Click for the point on other axis. this distance will be have of your axis length.

Specify start angle or [Parameter]: Enter a numeric value of start angle or click at the point along which you have to start the arc.

Specify end angle or [Parameter/Included angle]:Enter a numeric value of start angle or click at the point along which you have to end the arc.

From command

From:  fro (enter) From command is used to draw a line or any objects base point at a specific distance from a particular reference point. (Video link attached at the end of commands)   Command: L LINE Specify first point: fro Base point: Click at corner A <Offset>: 5 Specify next point or [Undo]: fro Base point: Click at corner B  <Offset>: 50 Specify next point or [Undo]: ESC click here to see how to use from command.

Co-ordinate systems

Hello Friends,             This is my first blog on AutoCAD tutorials. I won’t waste time on overview of AutoCAD and its uses which everyone knows. I will start directly with Co-ordinate systems of AutoCAD.             Co-ordinates systems are not of more use left in recent versions but still knowledge of co-ordinate systems is important as this keeps your mind sharp.  ABOUT CO-ORDINATE SYSTEM:     If you want to make any object in autocad you have two options.  1. you can directly click at any know point or  2. you can specify co ordinates of the point in command box. CARTESIAN AND POLAR CO-ORDINATE SYSTEM: Cartesian co ordinate system works only on linear distance. it have 3 axis X,Y,Z. when u specify any point with (+ or -) sign it prompts autocad to move along positive axis or negative axis at a specified distance. while working in 2D drafting, ...

Boundary Command

BOUNDARY (COMMAND) Boundary command creates region or polylines from the closed areas.  There two methods to work with boundary option  Boundary creation dialog box "-Boundary" Command. 1. BOUNDARY CREATION DIALOG BOX. Command: BOUNDARY // Following dialog box will open. Pick Points Determines a boundary from existing objects that form an enclosed  area around the specified point. Island Detection Controls whether the BOUNDARY command detects all internal  closed boundaries, called islands, in addition to the objects enclosing the pick point. Object Type Controls the type of the new boundary object. BOUNDARY creates the boundary as a region or a polyline object. Boundary Set Defines the set of objects BOUNDARY analyzes when defining a boundary from a specified point. Current Viewport Defines the boundary set from everything in the current viewport extents. Selecting this option discards any current boundary set. New Prompts you to select the objects that define the b...
