AutoCAD Commands

The document provides shortcuts and commands for AutoCAD. It lists shortcuts for orthogonal snapping, object snapping, polar tracking, dynamic input, isometric drafting, and object snapping tracking. Commands covered include drawing lines, polylines, arcs, circles, ellipses, rectangles, moving, copying, scaling, mirroring, trimming, erasing, extending, filleting, zooming, offsetting, rotating, measuring distance, dimensioning, construction lines, text, hatching, changing properties, polar array, solid union, and 3D extrusion. It also describes object snapping tools for nodes, intersections, perpendiculars, tangents, and nearest points. Finally, it discusses color printing in AutoCAD.

Snapping Instructions (Object Snapping):


** Snapping tools are in bottom right side

** Node snapping is used for points

** Intersection Snapping is used in intersections

** Perpendicular Snapping is used to draw a perpendicular line from a point

** Tangent Snapping is used to draw tangent line from one point

** Nearest Snapping tool helps to find the nearest point on a shape to use that point to draw any new
shape

Layout:

**COLOR

255 – Will Print White

White – Will Print Black

** VP Color refers to the color which will print out
