Objectives of the Course

To introduce two-dimensional computer drawings of objects and techniques. To teach techniques to create technical drawing objects in computer studies and plotted output from a printer or plotter. Storage of information and to explain the procedures for sending to other sources.

Course Content

To set used toolbars on graphical drawing area. To create a drawing file. To explain relationship between upper and lower version of same softwareTo save file, to save file with another format and names, close and exit from software. To use command line To introduce coordinate systems used in softwareTo create an object using different coordinate systems in sofware To introduce different cursor modes and coordinate displaysTo define view ports on graphical drawing areas and create multiplex view.Object editing commandsCommands related to all side of object Commands related to one side of object To use pattern and setup drawing elementsTo create a dimension on objects; Distance, area, perimeterTo create and isometric drawing To make dimensioning of all drawing file To create sectional view To use layer To display plot out and settings To make page setup To cerate a surface 3D editing commands; Extrude, Revolve, Subtract, Intersect, Interfere, Union, RotateTo set user coordinate system To use calculation command To hand over file about drawing applications
