AUTOCAD MAP A. About AutoCAD AutoCAD is one of the images with computer-assisted design is quite sophisticated. Slowly but surely
experienced AutoCAD drawing automation, replacing manual functions that had been dominating the
work in all fields. High compatibility allows images - AutoCAD drawings can be accepted by most other
drawing programs and can be printed using almost any printing equipment. AutoCAD has a fairly
complete facilities to create an image - the image of two-dimensional and three dimensional.
Some reasons for using AutoCAD from the manual way to produce the image: • Accuracy With this level of precision to 13 digits, AutoCAD has a level of accuracy is much more perfect and secure
compared with manual drawing. In the pictures manually, the accuracy of the image is determined by the
accuracy and precision hand eye which is very possible occurrence of errors. • Practicality, Ease, and Speed
Drawing and editing facilities that make AutoCAD more perfectly capable of producing much faster than
the manual way. Commands Copy, Array, Block, etc. allows us to create and edit images en masse and
quickly. • Cleanliness and neatness
With owned AutoCAD editing commands, allows us to revise and examine the images before it - correctly
printed, so that the resulting images are clean and perfect without a trace - the former editing,
elimination and sweat or crumpled paper like that found in the image manually. • Working Space Unlimited AutoCAD has an infinite workspace. The coordinates are the highest that can be inserted 1099. So that
we can create images as large and as much as anything in the same room. We can print it section by
section or all at once with the appropriate scale. • Flexibility Scale
AutoCAD allows one image printed over and over - once with different scales - different without having to
recreate the image. That which can not be done on the image manually. By setting the proper scale when
printing, we can also freely choose the units used in the picture, whether mm, cm, meters, miles, inches, and
so forth. • Documentation With file storage system, the image will be stored permanently. We can easily and quickly duplikasinya and
revise it later if there are design changes without having to create images from scratch again. With storage
media floppy disk or CD we can bring - take pictures with easy and edited anywhere.
the Desktop, a folder and taskbar on the bottom row. 2. Make a double click on the icon Shortcut Autodesk Map 5, which is in the area of your Desktop. If the
icon is not available, click the Start button - Programs-Autodesk Map 5 - Autodesk Map 5 on the
taskbar and wait for the process of program activation. 3. When the activation process has been completed and the menu program has loaded, AutoCAD will open
the dialog box Autodesk Map Today that allows you to specify the type of work when opening a file.
Today Autodesk Map dialog box (see Figure 2.1) consists of several key functions, namely the open
projects, create projects and symbol libraries.
Here's an explanation of each button:
1. Open Projects
This button is used when you want to open files that have been saved. AutoCAD displays the list of files
that exist in active directory in the list of files and Tues shows images from the selected file into the Preview
box. Selection of files can be done by selecting on the basis of files that are often used, date, file name
and location. If the file you want is not listed, click Browse .... AutoCAD will open the Select File dialog
box that contains ¬ DWG files that are in active direktofi.
2. Create Projects
This button is used when you want to open AutoCAD using the format provided. The options available are:§ Use a Template
This button is used to open a new file format based on another file. Another file is called template.
Template on the list is the file type DWT AutoCAD. Preview box right beside shows images from the
selected template file. By default, the template file is Acad.dwt or Acadiso.dwt. Pick another file on the list
if desired. When the file do not appear in the list, select Browse ... AutoCAD will open the Select
Template dialog box that lists the type DWT. Choose one of them, and then click Open.§ Start from Scratch This button is used to select the unit of measurement in the picture. There are options available, namely
Home and Metric. When you choose Home it is the unit of measurement used is the Feet and Inches.
When choosing a metric, then the unit of measurement is millimeters.§ Wizard
This button is used when you want to specify the format for the new file using the wizard. There are two
guides are provided, namely the Quick Setup and Advanced Setup
*) Use of Mouse Buttons
By default, if you do not swap the mouse button functions through the Control Panel window into the Left Hand (lefty), the left mouse button is used to select menu, choose the buttons and pointing at the screen point. The right mouse button functions the same as the ENTER key on the keyboard. So if in this book you dirninta press ENTER, you can melaklikannya from the keyboard or by pressing the right mouse button, except for orders Dtext.
When you use 3-button mouse, then the third button (usually in the middle) can berfungsii to activate Osnap menu. When you use the mouse 2 buttons, menus can Osnap diaktitkan by pressing Shift + right mouse button (keyboard Shift key pressed and not released, then press the right mouse button).
The commands that are accessible from this mouse button can be defined themselves. Suppose you want to make the Ctrl + right mouse button to run pefintah LINE, or Alt + tomboll right mouse button to execute the erase command, and so on, then you must define it by editing the file menu (the default is ACAD.MNU) using a text editor program such as Notepad . exe and Edit.com.
*) Alias Command
If you want to access the command from the command line, you can also type the command alias is usually shorter than the default command. The command alias is defined in ACAD.PGP files are loaded automatically when you start AutoCAD. and aims to shorten the typing of frequently used commands, such as L for LINE, CIRCLE C, A for ARC, E for erase, R to redraw and so forth. Suppose you type L at the Command prompt, then the result is the same as giving either LINE commands from the keyboard or from the menu.
List of command aliases defined in the file ACAD.PGP you can see at the end of this chapter. You can also define their own command aliases by editing the file ACAD.PGP with the editor program such as Notepad.exe and Edit.com.
