Draw Accurately

Engineering and architectural drawing require a high degree of accuracy.
With CAD, you draft more accurately than with manual methods.

On paper, you must draw objects care-
fully to ensure correct size and
alignment. Objects drawn to scale must
be manually verified and dimensioned.
In AutoSketch, you can ensure exact
dimensions by using several methods.
The simplest method is to locate points
by snapping to some interval of a grid.
Another method is to specify exact
coordinates. Coordinates specify a draw-
ing location by indicating a point along
an X and Y axis or a distance and angle
from another point. You can specify
coordinates that are relative to other
points or to the drawing's coordinate
system.
You can also snap to locations on exist-
ing entities, such as an endpoint of an
arc, the midpoint of a line, or the center-
point of a circle.
