This is an ideal start for the<br /> ---------------AutoCAD beginner.<br /> * * * * Object Selection<br /> ---------------This tutorial shows you the many ways AutoCAD objects can be selected. Covers the<br /> ---------------building of selection sets with implied windowing, fences etc.<br /> * * * * Modifying Objects<br /> ---------------This tutorial runs through all of the modify tools, demonstrating practical examples in<br /> ---------------each case.<br /> * * * * Direct Distance Entry<br /> ---------------The essential way of working with AutoCAD<br /> * * * * Drawing Aids<br /> ---------------All about drawing aids.<br /> * * * * Units and Scales<br /> ---------------If you're asking yourself "what scale do I draw in?" or "what units should I use?", you<br /> ---------------need this tutorial.<br /> * * * * Using Co-ordinates<br /> ---------------All about the use of co-ordinates in AutoCAD.<br /> * * * * Object Snap<br /> ---------------A tutorial giving an overview of all the AutoCAD object snaps (osnaps) with some<br /> ---------------worked examples. The tutorial also covers the use of temporary tracking points and<br /> ---------------object snap tracking.<br /> * * * * Object Properties<br /> ---------------This tutorial describes how to control the display of objects (colour, linetype etc.) using<br /> ---------------layers. It also explains what layers are and how they should be used.<br /> * * * * Masterplan Exercise<br /> ---------------This exercise can be used to practice your basic drafting skills.<br /> * * * * North Point Exercise<br /> ---------------An exercise sheet, covering a range of basic skills including object snaps.<br /> * * * * Site Layout Exercise<br /> ---------------This exercise is designed to help you test out your basic AutoCAD skills. You'll need an<br /> ---------------understanding of the Draw and Modify tools and how to use co-ordinates.<br /> ******************<br /> Beyond Basics<br /> * * * * Advanced Selection<br /> ---------------After you've mastered the basics of selection, this tutorial shows you some powerful<br /> ---------------methods for making complex selection sets.<br /> * * * * User Co-ordinate Systems<br /> ---------------This tutorial describes what UCSs are, why we need them and how to use them. The<br /> ---------------correct use of UCSs with AutoCAD is the key to producing good 3D models and they can<br /> ---------------also help with 2D work.<br /> * * * * Dimensioning<br /> ---------------This tutorial describes the options and commands available for dimensioning drawings<br /> ---------------and how to use them. The correct use of AutoCADs dimension tools is the key to<br /> ---------------producing clear and concise measured drawings.<br /> * * * * The UCS Icon<br /> ---------------All about the UCS icon.<br /> * * * * Scaling Images<br /> ---------------How to scale images in AutoCAD.<br /> * * * * All About Images<br /> ---------------This tutorial tells you all you need to know about working with images in AutoCAD.<br /> * * * * Using Images<br /> ---------------This exercise is designed to demonstrate the use of many of the image commands<br /> ---------------described in the All About Images tutorial. If you have little or no experience of working<br /> ---------------with images in AutoCAD, it is recommended that you work through the tutorial before<br /> ---------------attempting the exercise<br /> * * * * ISO Paper Sizes<br /> ---------------There has always been some confusion over the size of standard ISO drawing sheets with<br /> ---------------AutoCAD. The stated sizes in the plot dialogue box are not the true ISO sizes. This<br /> ---------------tutorial explains why and how to plot to scale from Model Space.<br /> * * * * Paper Space Exercise<br /> ---------------AutoCAD's paper space mode is a bit like having a page in a scrapbook onto which you<br /> ---------------can paste different views of your AutoCAD drawing. This whole page can then be<br /> ---------------plotted. This exercise demonstrates how.<br /> **************<br /> Techniques<br /> * * * * AutoCAD to Photoshop<br /> ---------------This tutorial demonstrates a number of workflows from quick and simple to high quality.<br /> * * * * Setting up a PostScript Plotter<br /> ---------------How to set up a PostScript Plotter.<br /> * * * * Scaling Images<br /> ---------------How to scale images in AutoCAD.<br /> * * * * Adding Sunlight to your Drawings<br /> ---------------This tutorial takes you through the steps required to add realistic sunlight effects to your<br /> ---------------3D model.<br /> * * * * Creating Custom Bitmap Materials<br /> ---------------This tutorial demonstrates how to create your own bitmap based materials using<br /> ---------------Photoshop and AutoCAD.<br /> * * * * Creating Seamless Tiles<br /> ---------------This tutorial shows you how to create perfectly seamless image tiles in Photoshop. The<br /> ---------------image tiles are perfect for creating image based materials in AutoCAD, MAX or Bryce.<br /> * * * * AutoCAD to Bryce<br /> ---------------This tutorial takes a step-by-step approach to moving your AutoCAD 3D models into<br /> ---------------Bryce, applying materials and creating a setting.<br /> * * * * Importing AutoCAD Meshes to Bryce<br /> ---------------This tutorial describes how to create a triangular ground model using Key Terra-Firma<br /> ---------------and AutoCAD and how to import this ground model into Bryce.<br /> * * * * Perspectives, Slides and Scripts<br /> ---------------AutoCAD can be used to create a simple "walk through" of any 3D model. This tutorial<br /> ---------------shows you how.<br /> * * * * Entering Survey Data using AutoCAD<br /> ---------------These techniques apply to basic CAD programs such as AutoCAD, IntelliCAD, etc. If<br /> ---------------you have a civil/survey program or add-on, such as Land Desktop, SurvCADD, Eagle<br /> ---------------Point, etc., then there are built-in tools for entering lines and curves.<br /> ****************************<br /> Modeling and Rendering<br /> * * * * Basic 3D and Surface Modeling<br /> ---------------Although AutoCAD has a number of commands for creating special 3D objects, a lot can<br /> ---------------be achieved by changing the properties of basic 2D objects like polylines. This tutorial<br /> ---------------provides a basic introduction to creating and viewing 3D objects.<br /> * * * * 3D Tree Exercise<br /> ---------------The object behind this exercise is twofold. Firstly it is to give you practice with some of<br /> ---------------the 3D techniques which you have discovered in the tutorials or to introduce you to them<br /> ---------------if you haven't seen them before. Secondly it is to demonstrate a reasonably simple<br /> ---------------method for constructing a convincing 3D tree.<br /> * * * * Adding Sunlight to your Drawings<br /> ---------------This tutorial takes you through the steps required to add realistic sunlight effects to your<br /> ---------------3D model.<br /> * * * * All About Shadows<br /> ---------------This tutorial considers the various options for creating shadows when rendering 3D<br /> ---------------models.<br /> * * * * Creating Custom Bitmap Materials<br /> ---------------This tutorial demonstrates how to create your own bitmap based materials using<br /> ---------------Photoshop and AutoCAD.<br /> * * * * Creating Seamless Tiles<br /> ---------------This tutorial shows you how to create perfectly seamless image tiles in Photoshop.
