Creation of Multiple viewports, Scaling the drawing and setting in Template in AutoCad

AIM: To Creat the Multiple viewports, scaling the drawing and setting in Template in AutoCAD.

INTRODUCTION:

There are two types of viewports in AutoCAD: Model space viewport and layout space viewport

Viewports are areas that display different views of your drawing or model

• Layout vewport are object it you can scale to display the vide of your drawing on a layout tab for publising and production.
• Model viewports split the drawing space into one or more rectangular areas called model space viewports

In large or complex drawing, displaying different views reduces the time needed to zoom or pan in a single view. This viewport can be comfigured from the view tab on the ribbon.

There are different model spave viewports cofigurations like single, two, vertical , horizontal etc., These configurations can be saved and restored by name with the VPORTS command or pulling down the viewport cofiguration form the ribbon.

When using multiple vieports, the one that is highlighted with a blue rectangle is called the current viewport, the remaining viewports will be displayed grey as for not used.

General Commands are used for Diagram:

• Line: Used to draw different entities like walls windows etc.
• Xline or Construction line: This is used to draw infinite lines which are very much essential in developing sections and elevation.
• Offset: This command also used ectensively to develop the same properties' to the copy of another one
• Trim: This tools is used to remove or erase the unwanted line.
• Extend: It is used to extend a line to joint the edge of another line or opposite line.
• Mirror: This tool is used to mirror/flip an object.
• Hatch: This tool is used to provide the approriate hatching to defferent portions.
• Fillet: This tool is very much essential in developing corners wherer the radius can be provided as whatever need.
• Layer: This enable such to assign different properties to different entities in a very easy way.
• Block: This feature is useing for any kind of material like furnitures, door, window etc., are creat with differend size and to insert the wherever its need in the plan form directly taken in the Blocks.
• Annotation: In this command are used for mention the Text and Dimension of the plan.

DEFAULT PROCEDURES:
