-Sometimes it happens that you are in a hurry when drawing objects.
-But you forgot that those objects are in the wrong layer.
-You can move objects to other layer easily by two methods.
-First, you can select all the objects that are in the wrong layer.
-Do you know that you can insert special symbols in
-Type Mtext command and specify two points.
-Let’s take a look how to FILLET a closed polyline in few steps.
-Type in FILLET command and select the Radius option.
-You can create almost any type of fill like image, block, xref and wipeout using the SuperHatch command.
-All you need to do is make a block of the pattern that you want to tile as your hatch.
-Either type Superhatch or find it on ribbon Express>Modify panel.
-Commonly when doing Hatch, we have to create first its boundary before doing the hatch itself.
-That is always the case for many users when doing hatch on their drawing.
-But doing hatch without boundary is also possible and that is the one we are going to do.
-To create hatch without boundary, type -HATCH.
– If you ever have received a DWG file from a client which contains a bunch of layers.
-But they don’t match my drawing standard layers.
-To match drawing standard layers between drawings you can use the Layer Translator tool.
-On the manage tab>CAD Standards panel, click the Layer Translator icon.
-Quite often, when you draw any type of line work, you are prompted for a distance and angle.
-By default, GstarCAD uses the positive X-axis, or EAST, direction as a reference.
-This angle is defined as 0°. Thus, all angles are measure from this, typically in a counter-clockwise method.
-If you wish to change the orientation of this reference angle, type the UNITS command.
