18-2. 2Nd Coordinates Absolute Rectangular Coordinates

AutoCAD 2D Absolute rectangular coordinate system

 

In the moving painting inward a higher house yous run into what it looks similar the drawing coordinate organization amongst absolute coordinates.

Absolute rectangular coordinates are points which are located at roughly distance from the rootage (UCS's) together with brand the intersection of axes X together with Y.

Our visual desktop when yous start AutoCAD is located inward quadrant I, because nosotros UCS is located inward the lower left corner. Given that absolutely coordinate organization based on the X, Y coordinates from the starting signal at the rootage (UCS's) way, nosotros volition equally good run when used inward this system, X together with Y coordinates for a railroad train of points on the desktop.

IMPORTANT! Remember to run amongst ABSOLUTE COORDINATES ever start from the origin UCS , wherever UCS was placed inward the drawing. So nosotros ever X = 0 together with y = 0 equally a starting signal (origin)

While entering the coordinates of the get-go to larn inward the coordinates X together with Y coordinates together with then, they are separated past times a comma.



Before drawing yous must run the ascendancy that nosotros desire to describe a Line or Polyline together with hence arrive at upward one's heed the coordinates of which are the intersection of X together with Y axes.

Take for instance the ikon below the xanthous business (that business is the business amongst absolute coordinates)

Command: LINE [start order]
Specify get-go point: 3,4 [Input X together with Y coordinates separated past times a comma, the get-go signal of the business - starting]
Specify adjacent signal or [Undo]: 8,10 [enter X together with Y coordinates separated past times a comma, the bit signal of the business - final]

Example moving painting below the Red business (that business is the business amongst absolute coordinates inward quadrant II (-X +Y)

Command: _line
Specify get-go point: -5,7 [enter X together with Y coordinates separated past times a comma, the get-go signal of the line]
Specify adjacent signal or [Undo]: -12,15 [enter X together with Y coordinates separated past times a comma, the bit business item]

(Image below shown ) How to Draw a Lines using Absolute Rectangle Coordinates inward AutoCAD using Command Line

If nosotros had whatsoever chance, entered the coordinates of both negative (-X together with -Y), hence nosotros would endure concerned signal inward quadrant III, together with inward instance (X together with -Y) inward quadrant IV.

IMPORTANT! Note that when yous describe amongst Absolute COORDINATES ever start from the Origin together with UCS.

EXAMPLE 2

Sketch drawn Absolute Rectangular Coordinates.

Command: LINE [start order]
Specify get-go point: 10.10 [Item 1, nosotros accept determined past times X ten together with Y are railroad train to ten units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Undo]: 20.10 [point 2, nosotros accept determined past times X twenty together with Y are railroad train to ten units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Undo]: 20.20 [point 3, nosotros accept determined past times X twenty together with Y are determined past times twenty units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 18,20 [item 4, nosotros accept determined the X eighteen together with Y are determined past times twenty units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 18,12 [Item 5, were determined past times X eighteen together with Y are determined past times 12 units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 12,12 [point 6, nosotros accept determined past times X 12 together with Y are determined past times 12 units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 10,10 [point 7, nosotros accept determined past times X ten together with Y are railroad train to ten units]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: ESCAPE (ESC) (end of drawing)

 

EXAMPLE 3

Command: LINE
Specify get-go point: 10,10 [Item 1, the distance ten from the UCS together with the X together with Y]
Specify adjacent signal or [Undo]: 20,10 [point 2, the distance twenty from the UCS together with the X together with Y past times 10]
Specify adjacent signal or [Undo]: 20,15 [Clause 3, the distance twenty from the UCS together with the X together with Y past times 15]]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 15,20 [Clause 4, the distance of xv from the UCS together with the X together with Y past times 20]]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 10,20 [Item 5, distance ten from the UCS together with the X together with Y past times 20]]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: 10,10 [point 6, the distance ten from the UCS together with the X together with Y past times 10]]
Specify adjacent signal or [Close/Undo]: ESCAPE

 

This Example above, We tin describe amongst the Mouse using the ORTHO mode but amongst the additional entry of business length.

Drawing With Mouse:

1. - switched share push ON for ORTHO mode
2. - Running the Line
3. - determining the starting signal of 10.10 [Item 1]
4. - is at signal 1, the mouse EAST arrive at upward one's heed the administration together with hence inward the ascendancy business prompt past times entering ten [item 2]
5. - Located inward department 2, arrive at upward one's heed the administration of the mouse together with hence NORTH ascendancy business prompt past times entering five [item 3]
6. - is at signal three (a starting signal nosotros are similar a shot at signal 3, equally nosotros larn inward relative coordinates), type the ascendancy business prompt relative coordinate @ -5,5
7. - is at signal 4, the mouse arrive at upward one's heed the administration of WEST together with hence type five [item 5]
8. - is at signal 5, the mouse arrive at upward one's heed the administration of South together with hence type ten [item 6]
