CAD commands: Tips for using the BREAK command

Thread Content

In the process of using Haochen CAD software to draw CAD drawings, sometimes I want to divide the CAD drawing into two parts from a certain point. However, using the CAD command - Break (BREAK) command allows me to specify two points each time, which will leave a gap in the drawing. So how can there be only one breakpoint? Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to the CAD command-BREAK command usage skills! 1. Conventional operations of interruption. If we want to put CAD text or blocks on the line, we can use the CAD interruption command to break the line. Usually, we need to specify two points. The graphic is broken into two objects, and there is a blank space between the two points. You can create a gap between two specified points on an object, breaking the object into two objects. If the points are not on the object, they are automatically projected onto the object, as shown in the image below. There are some uncontrollable factors in the CAD interrupt command operation. After executing the interrupt command, we usually use the mouse to click on the object, but the clicked position will be the first point of the interrupt by default, and the CAD command line directly prompts for the second point. At this time, when we directly select or capture the break point, we find that the interrupt command has ended, and the first point of the break is not what we need. How to deal with this situation? After executing the interrupt command and selecting the object, pay attention to the command line prompt. In addition to prompting us to specify the second point, we are also provided with the option to enter F to re-specify the first point, as shown in the figure below. Enter F and press Enter to reposition the first point to the location we need, and then continue to position the second point. 2. How to only disconnect the line without a gap. Even if you want to just disconnect without a gap, that is, let the second point be at the same position as the first point. The operation is very simple. We first enter F and then specify the first point. When prompted to specify the second point, enter an @ and press Enter. In fact, the interrupt point provided by CAD also operates in this way, which can be seen from the macro set by CUI. if you * If you are used to entering commands, just take the medicine according to the prescription. Enter BR and press Enter. Enter F and press Enter. Specify a point and press Enter. Enter @ and press Enter. But it should be noted that not all graphics can be interrupted by points. For example, you can break straight lines, open polylines, arcs, etc., but you cannot break closed objects (such as circles) at one point. 3. How to cut off one end of a CAD drawing. The CAD break command can not only divide straight lines, arcs, polylines, ellipses, spline curves, rings and other object types into two, but also delete one end. The trick lies in how to select the second point. If the second point is positioned beyond the end point of one side of the drawing, one end of the drawing can be cut off entirely, as shown in the figure below. When drawing, some pipelines cross each other but are not connected. In many professional software, they will be automatically interrupted and leave a certain gap. In Haochen CAD software, there is an object interruption function. The above are the tips for using the CAD command - BREAK command during the drawing process in Haochen CAD software. When you use CAD software to draw, you can use these techniques to operate, which can help you achieve better drawing results.
