5 AREA Command Shapes drawn with lines or polylines do not need to be closed for AutoCAD to calculate the area. AutoCAD calculates the area as if a line connects the first and last points. Obtaining Information About Drawing 5
6 AREA Command To calculate Areas Drawn With Lines Select the endpoints of the lines. Use OSNAP Obtaining Information About Drawing 6
7 The ADD Option The ADD option adds areas to calculate a total area. Obtaining Information About Drawing 7
8 The SUBTRACT Option The SUBTRACT option subtracts areas to calculate a total area. Obtaining Information About Drawing 8
9 The LIST Command The LIST Command allows you to display data about any AutoCAD object. Obtaining Information About Drawing 9
10 The LIST Command Information that can be obtained: Line lengths. Coordinates. Circle and arc radii. Polyline widths. Object Layers. Insertion points. Obtaining Information About Drawing 10
11 The LIST Command Select LIST by: Typing LI or LIST Pick the object(s) Press [Enter] Obtaining Information About Drawing 11
12 The LIST Command LIST also gives information about text. Obtaining Information About Drawing 12
13 The DBLIST Command DBLIST gives information about all items in the drawing. The information passes by a screen full at a time. Press [Enter] to see the next screen. Press [F2] to exit the text window. Obtaining Information About Drawing 13
14 The DIST Command DIST gives the distance between two points. Command: DI or DIST Specify first point: (select point) Specify second point: (select second point) Obtaining Information About Drawing 14
15 The ID Command The ID command gives the coordinate location of a single point on the screen. Command: ID Specify point: (select point) Obtaining Information About Drawing 15
16 The ID Command The ID command will also place a blip on the screen at coordinates that you specify. Command: ID Specify point: 8.75,6.44 X=8.5 Y=6.44 Z=0.00 Obtaining Information About Drawing 16
