AutoCAD 2024 : Essentials (Metric Units), Paperback / softback Book

AutoCAD 2024 : Essentials (Metric Units) Paperback / softback

Part of the AutoCAD 2024 series

Paperback / softback

Description


The AutoCAD(R) 2024: Essentials guide is designed for those using AutoCAD(R) 2024 with a Windows operating system. This guide is not designed for the AutoCAD for Mac software.



The objective of AutoCAD 2024: Essentials is to enable you to create, modify, and work with a 2D drawing in the AutoCAD software.



This guide covers the essential core topics for working with the AutoCAD software. The guide begins with learning the basic tools for creating and editing 2D drawings. It then continues to explore the tools used to annotate drawings by adding text, hatching, dimensions, and tables. More advanced tools, such as working with blocks and setting up layouts, are introduced to improve your efficiency with the software. Not every command or option is covered, because the intent is to show the essential tools and concepts, such as:


  • Understanding the AutoCAD workspace and user interface
  • Using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools
  • Organizing drawing objects on layers
  • Using reusable symbols (blocks)
  • Preparing a layout to be plotted
  • Adding text, hatching, and dimensions



The AutoCAD 2024: Essentials guide is not recommended for users that have completed AutoCAD 2024: Fundamentals, as the Essentials guide is part of the Fundamentals two-book set.
