3. TYPES OF COORDINATES IN AUTOCAD

Types of coordinates in AutoCAD.
Explore this kind of coordinates and consider them good. The pictures to see how the coordinates are
entered in the Command Line. These coordinates, I will elaborate later but for now it is important to
understand the scheme and coordinate their method of application (under the name of the coordinates).

Of course to enter some of the following commands to coordinate an important starting point (starting
point where we are, on the basis of it we will choose which of these commands coordinates can be used.)

17-1. MODIFY - Toolbar icons in AutoCAD

Toolbar MODIFY, the toolbar to work with: Copy, Mirror, Array, Offset, Move, Rotate, Trim, Extend,
chamfer, Fillet, Explode, Pedit etc. The same commands can be used via MODIFY File Menu. Locate
the tape can be anywhere on the working window in the system of 'Drag and Drop'. Here I will describe
some commonly used commands and others to explore themselves. ;-)

On the tutorials that follow in this group I will try to beginners demonstrate how to use a particular
command.

12. Preparation of drawing boundaries and setting

drawings
After running AutoCAD on a monitor screen have shown a working window of AutoCAD, with all its
settings (unless you have the settings set up differently and this is not the first run).
I will be based on the fact that we have set your preferences and we have set  AutoCAD (the link no. 6)

Right at the beginning of the plot we decide if it will be 2D (drawing in the plane) or 3D (spatial) drawing.
To understand this more closely you need to understand that for 2D drawing using a plane (XY) and a 3D
drawing using the 3 planes (XZ, XY and YZ).

Also note that when you draw in 2D (drawing in the plane) the location of art is set to coincide with the
coordinate system and its parts of the world (see no link. 2). So the position of the East, North, West and
South, as in real life, except when we reconfigure the Startup Settings)

Also note that the 3D drawing can have a look in one plane and on it we can switch between using the
buttons on the toolbar VIEW

Where we can use views:

- Top
- Bottom
- Left
- Right
- Front
- Back
- SW Isometric
- SE Isometric
- NE Isometric
- NW Isometric

So when I switch the plane after mentioned respects draw in 2D and 3D to see if we have to switch to
these views. Notice that we can draw in the 3D view and in my opinion it is even desirable to set the UCS
and to avoid problems when you draw that occur when OSNAP its magnet attracts a certain point where
we draw the line.

If you want (not need), we set the boundaries of the area where we draw the drawing. This depends on
whether you activate STARTUP dialog window. If so then you all of these settings can go step by step
when you start AutoCAD. If not then you can set all the settings later on (the border drawings, units of
measurement units, as well as other, so please see no link No. 6. and No. link. 4

We move with the assumption that we will subsequently set the border areas of the drawing.
So we set limits on the size of the drawing (dimension) A4 paper. As we know, A4 has the dimensions of
210x297 mm (min helpful. 200x270 mm) in a position PORTRAIT or 297x210 mm in
position LANDSCAPE.

To set up PORTRAIT position is required in Coomand Line LIMITS command key and then enter the
dimensions of the area. The first is written the WIDTH => the LENGTH. (Do not understand the length as
the height, because in the 2D drawing no height (there are only Width and Length))

In the Command Line, type the command LIMITS + Enter key and type 210,297 + enter.
Now we set the limit drawing on A4 size paper. (If you want to see what the size limits of drawings, GRID
features include button and you will see a network consisting of points with spacing between each
adjacent point, which is defined in the Settings for SNAP function. In my case it is 10 units.

After setting the drawing area GRID network switch (DTM + ON) and then if you do not see the network
zoom view mode by pressing the Zoom Extenes button on the toolbar ZOOM or simply in the Command
Line, type z + enter => e + enter and you will have such a view the space that you specified for the
drawing.

When we select the plot area can use Line drawing to mark the areas, so long as we know where we can
draw.
As you can see the first point of the lower left corner I have set to 0,0 and the upper right point I put the
coordinates of 210 by 297 by X and Y (corresponding to the dimensions of A4 paper)

Notice that the coordinates are separated by COMMA in enrollment. (first writes the coordinates of the X
axis and then after the comma in the Y axis). 
BTW: Also remember to decimals POINT writes on the keyboard. (ie. not the same as 2.5 and 2,5 in the
first case it is a decimal number in the second case, the coordinates separated by commas)

Why do we need this space? Therefore, it would have had orientation drawing size and drawing that
when plotting (printing on paper) is the way you want. Now we need to prepare Layer and its
characteristics, but on the next link No. 13

PAPER FORMAT (Please see link No. 28 of Content this Blog)

- A0 => 841 x 1189

- A1 => 594 x 841
- A2 => 420 x 594
- A3 => 297 x 420
- A4 => 210 x 297

- paper format is the size of paper on which the drawing

- the largest paper format from the A0, which are made all the small paper formats
- ratio of pages of A0 is 1: root of 2, and the surface of 1 m2
- smaller format paper produced halving the previous page for more large format
- the final format, according to the box, which gives the border area of the drawing (solid wide line), the
space for drawing, the header (the constituent elements of the drawings), the table of tolerances, the
table changes, the reference network, the indicator for the orientation and alignment of the drawing and
label for crop art.

NOTE:
Before you start drawing it is necessary to plan a SCALE to print drawings on paper of a certain size.
Why? Because we based on benchmarks set parameters Style quotation (descriptive text, size
dimensions arrows etc etc). More on the link number 24 PLOT-Scale
10. UCS - USER COORDINATE SYSTEM
To work in AutoCAD is necessary to know the characteristics of a UCS (User Coordinate System) and
work with them because without the knowledge of how to set the UCS is almost impossible to work in
AutoCAD

View UCS-a in 2D i 3D

Toolbars UCS and UCS II coordinate system AutoCAD

2007

 
Here I will not describe all the icons (buttons) for positioning a UCS but only some of the most important.
(more about UCS icons and their specific functions in the following topics)

First we must distinguish between the command ORIGIN which locks and unlocks the positioning of a
UCS (the same on and off the View => Display => UCS icon => ORIGIN).
When the active option Origin (a check mark next to them) then we have "locked" position the UCS and
USC will still appear on the site of positions that we set it up, no matter how much zoom the view of the
working drawings of the window, unless the positional point when Zoom (magnified view of the drawing)
go out of the window frame, then we will show the UCS in the lower left corner of the window.
If we Origin option off then we will be UCS run in the bottom left corner of the window. Depending in
which respect we will vary the UCS (2D, 3D Vireframe, 3D Realistic Visual Style and 3D Conceptual
Visual Style)

If we shrank the UCS work flow and we want to return to the starting position then using the  World
UCS icon (icon 2) we can do the same, and UCS will be positioned in the left lower corner of the window.
This icon, we have both the Toolbar toolbar (UCS and UCS II). When move the mouse pointer over the
icon will show you her name.

Use the first icon on the toolbar1 UCS, UCS positioning by clicking on the icon called UCS and then the
X axis direction and then in a direction of Y axis at any point. The first course will determine the position of
the x-axis (in this case the Origin should be included, then a check mark next to View. (View => Display
=> UCS icon => ORIGIN). Observe the activity functions of ORTHO and SNAP. If Ortho is turned on then
you will not be able to position the UCS at an angle and if SNAP function is activated then you will not be
able to position the starting point exactly where you want it to AutoCAD for Snap step and constantly
dodge your precise intention. 
It looks like this

Rotate UCS using a button that can be seen in the picture below.

In the case of UCS rotated at an angle and then turn on ORTHO mode all drawing lines follow the axis
X and Y. (imagine that you just rotate the paper on which you draw in 2D)
If you want to UCS back to the starting position click on the WCS

Use the icon No.3, position ourselves Origin UCS at a particular point (Origin active - clip included) by
first clicking on the icon and then to a certain point, UCS, and we will be positioned at the respective point
in the plane, now we can rotate the axis X or Y or Z.

Use the icons No.4, Z-Axis Vector by using the 3D drawing UCS positioned so that clicking on the icon
and then to the point where you want to set the UCS hold the left mouse button and then determine the
direction of Z axis by dragging the mouse pointer in the direction of Z axis and click to end. It looks like
this

Use the icons No.5, 3 Point that we use the 3D drawing UCS positioned so that clicking on the icon
and then to the point where you want to set the UCS and then click on another point and then the third
point (we take into account the direction of Counter Clockwise). 
It looks like this
These three icons are used to us to rotate the UCS around a particular axis. Each individually. We
have positioned the UCS in 3D drawing, click on the icon and then the axis around which we rotate the
UCS, for example, about the X axis and then determine the rotation angle (taking into account the
direction of Counter Clockwise). I'm here in the pictures below rotate the UCS around the X axis by 75
degrees counterclockwise-clockwise so that we can raise the Y-axis (out of plane) to 75 degrees and with
that also rotate the Z axis by 75 degrees for rotation performed around the axis X.
