Advanced 2D CAD, Chapter 15

You can save Multiline Styles for future use to a file with a ___ file extension.

.MLN

Mline

A set of parallel lines that behave as one object

Divide

Adds evenly spaced points to a line

If you need to construct an ellipse that represents a circular hole drilled into an inclined plane and you know the hole diameter and angle of the plane, you can use the ____ command and ____ option.

Ellipse, Rotation

A Spline is defined by points which have a pull on the shape but the curve does not pass directly through the points.

False

A type of bezier curve

Spline

AutoCAD determines the length of any object that has two endpoints when you use the Measure command.

False

It is recommended to use SNAP and ORTHO when creating Sketch lines.

False

The Divide command divides a Line or Arc or other object into the specified number of segments. For example, using Divide on a Line and entering a value of 10 would create 10 separate Lines.

False

There are no options of the Rectang command—you can only specify two diagonal corners to construct the rectangle.

False

To draw the walls in an architectural floor plan, the Mline command is the most efficient method to use.

False

You can create a Ray that is parallel to an existing Ray by using the Offset option of the Ray command.

False

The most efficient way to create a solid filled shape is to use the _____ command.

Hatch

The 2 types of construction lines

Xline and Xray

If you wanted to construct a grid composed of vertical and horizontal lines completely across the drawing as a preliminary layout for a ceiling plan (defining the location of rectangular ceiling tiles), it would be efficient to use the ____ command with the ____ option.

Xline, Offset

The easiest way to construct a hexagon that measures 2" across the corners (from one corner to the opposite corner) is by using the ____ command with the ____ option.

Polygon, Inscribe

Which of the following statements is not true as it relates to the Region command? - Region converts multiple selected objects comprising one closed shape into one object - Region must be applied to a closed shape - Region does not operate with Plines - Region prepares objects to be used with Boolean operations

Region does not operate with Plines

Assume you wanted to make Sketch lines and then planned to Erase or Trim the Sketch lines. It would be best to change the ____ variable to 1 before creating the Sketch lines.

SKPOLY

To create objects that appear to be drawn freehand, use the _____ command.

Sketch

An Xline (Construction Line) has no "snap-able" Endpoints, but has a theoretical Midpoint.

True

When you create a Polygon, AutoCAD actually uses a Pline to draw the shape.

True

You can create a solid filled circular shape using the Donut command.

True

Sketch

Using the cursor to draw many short line segments

Two features that can help you create Revclouds quickly and easily are ____ and ____.

connecting the ends without OSNAPs; converting existing closed objects into Revclouds

Divide provides all of the following features except ____. - it allows you to specify the number of segments and creates Point objects at each segment. - it allows you to specify the number of segments and inserts a named Block at each segment. - it allows you to specify the segment length and creates Point objects at each segment. - it creates one less Point object than the number of segments you specify.

it allows you to specify the segment length and creates Point objects at each segment.
