Draw Ellipse in AutoCAD

AutoCAD Ellipse Command.

AutoCAD Ellipse Command Access.

1)Command Line: Ellipse or  EL Enter.

2)Ribbon: Home tab >> Draw panel >>Ellipse.

To Create an AutoCAD Ellipse or an AutoCAD elliptical arc.you should know about Ellipse is that

The 1st two point of AutoCAD Ellipse define the position and length of first(major) axis. The 3rd point determine the distance between  center of AutoCAD Ellipse and  End point of second (minor)axis.

To Create an AutoCAD Ellipse:

Start with [El Enter].

Axis Endpoint

Defines the first(major) axis by clicking two endpoints or by providing start point and length of axis in specific direction. The given axis may define  the major or  minor axis of AutoCAD Ellipse.

Draw Polygon in AutoCAD

Rectangle and other closed counter loops are type of polygon i.e. closed counters with more than or equal to three sides. The AutoCAD Polygon command provide a much faster method of drawing a polygon (all side of polygon and angle subtended by them at center are same or equal ).

The given step guide  how to work with  the AutoCAD Polygon command:-

First: Click AutoCAD Polygon command from the drop-down Draw panel of Ribbon in home tab , or type [POL Enter].

AutoCAD starts the Polygon command and asks you enter the number of sides for the polygon.like this

Enter number of sides <4>:

Second: Type the number of side of the polygon to be drawn and then Enter.

Your polygon make a polygon have sides ranging from 3 to 1,024 .

AutoCAD ask you to mention the center point of the polygon.like this

[Specify center of polygon] or [Edge]:

Or

You can use the Edge option to draw  Polygon  by mentioning length of  side of the polygon

Third: click the center point on drawing canvas or insert coordinates(x,y).

AutoCAD asks you to mention whether the  Polygon is inscribed circle whose radius you specify in fifth Step  (the vertex of the  Polygon will be on the boundary or circumference  of the circle) or circumscribed circle (the sides of AutoCAD Polygon will be tangent to circle).

Command line shows this:

Enter an option [Inscribed in circle/Circumscribed about circle] <I>:

Draw Arcs in AutoCAD

AutoCAD Arcs Command Access.

1)Command Line: ARC or  A Enter.

2)Ribbon: Home tab > Draw panel > Arc.

First: 3 Points ARC method circle

This command creates an AutoCAD Arcs using three points on drawing canvas. Using the default method for creating an arc, you specify a start point, a second point, and an end point. The arc radius and center point are calculated based on the position of the three consecutive points you specify.

For 3 points AutoCAD Arcs, you have to select  [Draw panel>>Arc>>3 Points] from the ribbon then pick a point on Drawing canvas for the 1st point of your arc. Then  Specify Next point of arc  which means you need to select second point of the ARC. After clicking  point on drawing canvas, specify last or end point for arc. then the arc will be created.

Draw Rectangle in AutoCAD

Use the Rectangle command to create AutoCAD rectangular object. A single poly line object is created with the command. The easiest method for creating a rectangle is to specify the first corner, then the opposite corner. Other options for creating the rectangle include the Area, Dimension, and Rotation options.

Command Access

Command Line: RECTANGLE OR REC .

Ribbon: Home tab > Draw panel > Rectangle.

when the rectangle command started we will see command line ask you following options.

Sub-Command Options available before and after the first corner point selected :
