Creation of geometries by Coordinate system methods using AutoCad
- Aim:
- To create a geometries from p1 to p2 using all the coordinate systems which are as follows:-
- Absolute coordinate,Relative rectangular coordinate,Relative polar coordinates system
- Introduction
- Click Autocad icon from desktop (here i am using Autocad 2023 version)
- Then, before staring new drawing work, we have to set up some instructions which are follwing:
- click on Application menu
- next,click on NEW
- next,click on Create New,
- here, set the limits and units (imperal templetes ,decimal)
- Dynamic input button should be OFF,ON orthogonal mode
