open a notepad

aeflor


save as .scr file (scripts files)
go back to autocad, PS commamd scr and find the file
it is automaticlly on the layer list
 
create a own script, it is really easy to make a copy for each project on autocad
whenever you do the same floor or wall, just using the same script
and never did a different script if you make a copy for it
 
all in one file for the homework next class
Aeflor - 1 - continuous
Aewall - 7 - continuous
Aeclg - 3 - dashed2

F7 - no gray (black screen) in model view

command: mv (model view) - to cut a hold on layer that we can see model view
double click in MV window (click in)
command: Z enter C enter - then click center of dwg - then type "PS scale factor" 1/(x)XP
command: pan ( hold the view)
command: ps (paper space) / ms (model space)
command: tm enter 1 enter OR 0 enter (TILEMODE - 1 is model space/ 0 is paper space)
command: sc (scale - then select object -  type 0,0 - type 48 in MS)
           
MS - 48
PS - 1/48XP

open a file
in MS
alt d g - draw a retangle 0,0 X,Y
sc - selecte object enter - 0,0 - 48

go to PS
alt d g - draw a retangle 0,0 X,Y
mv - seclete the retangle - double click in the box
click outsdie  - command: z enter c enter - click in the box - 0,0 - 1/(x)XP
p - move the hand sign - get the exactly same retangle

set the workspaces as AutoCAD classic
to save the workspace : click the up bar - save current workplaces (save as Template included units limits, it is the screen not image '.dwg')

left up : layer / right up: porperties
left bottom: styles / right bottom: workplaces
(earse other bars)

F2 to view command F2 again to hide the command window (F2 is the command history, it can save the command until close it)
close command window - Ctrl + 9 reopen the command window

L+enter - open Dynamic Input
OR click the bottom bar - Dynamic Input

delete item: left up and bottom corner - to get all of line in the square that high light (blue square)
                  right up and bottom corner - to get line which only in the square that highlight (green square)

Project 1 - M C Escher and Class Notes

Commands:
B BREAK
C COPY
D DISTANCE
E ERASE
EX EXPLODE
F FILLET
I INSERT (BLOCK)
L LINE (every line has endpoint 'E' and midpoint 'M' - OSNAP / always can set the points / click a point bewteen endpoint and midpoint)
LA LAYER (means including name, color and linetype) (name has discipline 'AEMPSCI', e/n which means new using "-" and item '3or4 letter only, for example: Aewall/ A-flr/ Axwall) (color has line, thickness 1-7, 250-255 grayscale ) (linetype - we load the linetype to assign to layer)
M MIRROR (mirrior means reflection, can be vertically and horizontally)
we don't need to show inch, for example: 12feet - we type 12 only. 2feet5inches - we type 2'5
PL PLINE
PE PEDIT
T TRIM (cut, select the thing that you trim and you trim with)
XT EXTEND (click the middle of two points and the vertiacal line outside the horizontal line, then the horizontal line will be extended) (Edgemode is the command)
Z ZOOM (put Z+enterE+enter, the zoom extend. put Z+enter+enter, then zoom back to where you are)
when you click one point, second point and the third point, then the second point is the midpoint.
