Note: The corner trim direction depends on which end of the object you select. Select the ends that you wish to keep.

      OPTIONS:

      Polyline: This option allows you to fillet all intersections of a Polyline in one operation, such as all 4 corners of a rectangle.

      Trim: This option controls whether the original lines are trimmed to the end of the Arc or remain the original length. (Set to Trim or No trim)

      Multiple: Repeats the fillet command until you press <enter> or Esc key.

MATCH PROPERTIES

      Match Properties is used to “paint” the properties of one object to another. This is a simple and useful command. You first select the object that has the desired properties (the source object) and then select the object you want to “paint” the properties to (destination object).

      Only one “source object” can be selected but its properties can be painted to any number of “destination objects.”

      1. Select the Match Properties command using one of the following:

      Ribbon = Home tab / Properties panel /

       or

       Keyboard = MA <enter>

      Command: matchprop

      2. Select source object: select the object with the desired properties to match

      3. Select destination object(s) or [Settings]: select the object(s) you want to receive the matching properties.

      4. Select destination object(s) or [Settings]: select more objects or <enter> to stop.

      Note: If you do not want to match all of the properties, after you have selected the source object, right click and select “Settings” from the short cut menu, before selecting the destination object. Uncheck all the properties you do not want to match and select the OK button. Then select the destination object(s).

MEASURE

      The MEASURE command is very similar to the DIVIDE command because point objects are drawn at intervals on an object. However, the MEASURE command allows you to specify the LENGTH of the segments rather than the number of segments.

      Note: The object selected is NOT broken into segments. The POINTS are simply drawn ON the object.

      The MEASUREment was started at the left endpoint, and ended just short of the right end of the line. The remainder is less than the measurement length specified.

      You designate which end you want the measurement to start by selecting the end when prompted to select the object.

      1. First open the Point Style box and select the POINT STYLE to be placed on the object.

       Ribbon = Home tab / Utilities Panel / Point Style

       or

       Keyboard = ddptype <enter>

      (Refer to the Point command if you need a refresher on Points)

      2. Next select the MEASURE command using one of the following:

       Ribbon = Home tab / Draw Panel /

       or

       Keyboard = ME <enter>

      3. Select Object to MEASURE: select the object to MEASURE

       (Note: This selection point is also where the MEASUREment will start.)

      4. Specify length of segment or [Block]: type the length of one segment <enter>

MEASURE TOOLS AND ID POINT

      The following tools are very useful to confirm the location or size of objects.

      The Measure tools enables you to measure the Distance, Radius, Angle, Area, or Volume of a selected object. The default option is Distance.

      1. You may access these tools as follows:

       Ribbon = Home tab / Utilities Panel / Measure

      2. Select one of the tools and follow the instructions on the command line.

       ID Point

      The ID Point command will list the × and Y coordinates of the point that you select.

      The coordinates listed will be from the Origin.

       Ribbon = Home tab / Utilities Panel /

       or

       Keyboard = ID <enter>

      1. Select the ID Point command by typing: ID <enter>

      2. Select a location point, such as the endpoint of a line.

      The X, Y and Z location coordinates for the endpoint will be displayed.

       Example:

      1. Command: id<enter>

      2. Snap to the endpoint

      3. Coordinates, from the Origin, are displayed.

MIRROR

      The MIRROR command allows you to make a mirrored image of any objects you select. You can use this command for creating right / left hand parts or draw half of a symmetrical object and mirror it to save drawing time.

      1. Select the MIRROR command using one of the following:

       Ribbon = Home tab / Modify Panel
