using one of the following:
2. Select the New Layer tool and a new layer will appear.
3. Type the new layer name and press <enter>.
4. Select any of the features and a dialog box will appear.
Features:
Refer to the previous pages for controlling and selecting Layer colors, lineweights and transparency.
Refer to the next page for loading and selecting Layer linetypes.
Loading and Selecting Layer Linetypes
In an effort to conserve data within a drawing file, AutoCAD automatically loads only one linetype called “continuous”. If you would like to use other linetypes, such as “dashed” or “fenceline”, you must Load them into the drawing as follows:
Instructions:
1. Start a New file using either the inch-helper.dwt or the metric-helper.dwt
2. Draw the Lines below using:
A. Line command
B. Ortho (F) on.
C. Turn Increment Snap (F9) on
3. Select the appropriate layer, then select the Line command, then draw a line.
4. Select the appropriate layer, then select the Line command, then draw a line.
5. Select the appropriate layer, then select the Line command, then draw a line.
Are you noticing a pattern here?
6. Save the drawing as: Ex-3A
Exercise 3B
Instructions:
1. Start a New file using either the inch-helper.dwt or the metric-helper.dwt
2. Change the Increment Snap to 0.20” [5.08 mm] and Grid spacing to 0.40” [10.16 mm]. If you have the Snap and Grids set correctly it will be easy.
3. Make sure Snap and Grid status bar buttons are on.
4. Draw the objects below using layer Object Line.
Review pages 3-2 through 3-6 for Circle and Rectangle options.
5. Do not dimension, you will learn dimensioning soon.
6. Save the drawing as: Ex-3B
Exercise 3C
Instructions:
1. Start a New file using either the inch-helper.dwt or the metric-helper.dwt
2. Draw the Rectangles below using the options:
Dimension, Chamfer, Fillet, Width and Rotation
3. Use layer Object Line.
4. Save the drawing as: Ex-3C
Rectangle Dimensions:
Length = 3” [76.2 mm]
Width = 2” [50.8 mm]
Chamfer = Dist1 = 0.50” [12.7 mm] Dist2 = 0.50” [12.7 mm]
Rectangle Dimensions:
Length = 3” [76.2 mm]
Width = 2” [50.8 mm]
Fillet = 0.50” [12.7 mm]
Rectangle Dimensions:
Length = 3” [76.2 mm]
Width = 2” [50.8 mm]
Rotation = 45°
Chamfer = 0
Fillet = 0
Rectangle Dimensions:
Length = 3” [76.2 mm]
Width = 2” [50.8 mm]
Line Width = 0.200” [5.08 mm]
Rotation = 0°
Chamfer = 0
Fillet = 0
Exercise 3D
Instructions:
1. Start a New file using either the inch-helper.dwt or the metric-helper.dwt
2. Important: Draw the objects below using the following Layers:
Roof, Wall, Window, Door and Plants
3. You can change Snap and Grid settings to whatever you like.
4. You decide when to turn Ortho and Snap on or off.
5. All objects must be placed accurately. All lines must intersect exactly.
6. Save the drawing as: Ex-3D
Exercise 3E
Instructions:
1. Open Ex-3D. (Use Open not New to open an existing drawing)
2. Make layer Object “current”
(I am having you do that because you can’t Freeze or Lock a layer that is current and I want to make sure that none of the layers that you used in the drawing is current.)
3. Freeze the following layers: Window and Plants (Do not use erase)
4. Lock layer Roof
5. Try to erase any of the roof lines.
You can’t because the Roof layer is Locked.
6. Save the drawing as: Ex-3E
