We will next turn OFF the GRIDSNAP option by toggling off the SNAP Mode. In the Vectorworks program, along with their location in the workspace.Īdditionally, each section of help about a command or tool describes where AutoCAD provides 50+ predefined toolbars for access to frequently used commands.

The help system includes a PDF listing all commands and tools In the Vectorworks program, some tool is always active switch Sheet layers, which contain viewports, are at a scale of 1:1 and are the Like hand drafting, each design layer of a Vectorworks drawing has a scale. Layers are like sheets of vellum, placed one on top of the other, withĪll layers visible and editable, or only the current layer showing/editable. In AutoCAD/Revit (instead, Vectorworks classes are the equivalent). Layers in the Vectorworks program are not the same as layers Of the Vectorworks program have no equivalent in AutoCAD/Revit, and vice

AutoCAD workspace has not been selected or has changed. AspectĬhanges the grid spacing in the X and Y directions, which can have different values.Įntering x following either value defines it as a multiple of the snap interval rather than the drawing units. This setting is also controlled by the GRIDDISPLAY system variable. FollowĬhanges the grid plane to follow the XY plane of the dynamic UCS. The frequency of these grid lines is determined by the frequency of the major grid lines.ĭisplays the grid beyond the area specified by the LIMITS command. If turned on, generates additional, more closely spaced grid lines or dots when zoomed in. Limits the density of grid lines or dots when zoomed out. In AutoCAD LT: When SHADEMODE is set to Hidden.Ĭontrols the density of grid lines when zoomed in or out.In AutoCAD-based products: When using any visual style except 2D Wireframe.
