Week of 19 September
In this week i learned six different commands to add to my autacad arsenal. I learned how to rotate an object which pretty much rotates the object from a pivot point or to a certain angle. The scale command allows you to scale an object to a different size. For example if you want to scale an object to half its size then you type in 0.5. The stretch command allows you to to stretch your objects on a certain side or multiple sides at the same time. In order to select the objects that you want to stretch you have to use the dashed square from right to left. The fillet command allows you to round corners of an object by choosing a radius. The chamfer command allows you to cut off corners of an object by either selecting the length you want to remove or by selecting the length and angle. The mirror command lets you symetrize an object. The array command lets you draw a series of objects as either polar or rectangular arrays. The rectangular arrays are drawn as rows and columns and you can also alter the angle as well. The circular array allows you to draw a series of an object that follows an arc of a circle or a complete circle.
