Lynn Allen's Tips And Tricks For Using Autocad 2011
New enhancements allow you to include Fold panels. As you change the size of your AutoCAD window or add and remove panels from a tab, Fold panels resize horizontally to fi ll the available space. You can specify a default, maximum and minimum button size for each panel in the CUI.
Easily select overlapping objects with the new Selection Cycling tool (controlled on the status bar). When you select an object that overlaps other objects, AutoCAD displays a list of all the overlapping objects. Objects highlight as you move through the list. Selection Cycling can be very helpful when working in 3D.
Need to draw an object with the same type and properties of an existing one? Use the new Add Selected tool to get the job done in no time! For example, select a polyline, pick Add Selected from the right click menu and AutoCAD is ready to create another polyline with the same properties. This is a HUGE timesaver!
The geometry in AutoCAD has always driven the dimensions. We draw a line the correct length and then dimension the line. What if you could drive the geometry from the dimensions? You change the value of the dimension and the geometry automatically updates! That is exactly what we have in AutoCAD 2011.
