N problems encountered when drawing maps
Thread Content
I’m encountering some issues while using CAD for drawing, and I hope everyone can help me solve them. 1. When adding text, is it possible to make it bold directly, without having to modify each character individually? 2. Is it possible to place the text entered directly on one layer, while putting other elements on separate layers, so that there’s no need to keep switching layers? 3. When selecting multiple polylines, is it possible to bold them all at once? 4. How can I select all items on a certain layer without closing other layers first? 5. When filling color between two parallel lines, is it possible to do so directly without needing to close the lines first? 6. I’m using someone else’s drawing, and I’ve found that it’s not possible to change the line width of the lines in it. I can change the line width when I draw by myself, but the line width remains unchanged regardless of whether the image is zoomed in or out (that is, when I use the scroll wheel to zoom out, the line width doesn’t change as well). I want the line width to change as well. 7. I want to add a point to a polyline, yet still have it remain a polyline. 8. Most importantly, I need some materials that can be used in CAD, and they should look good. The materials are used for drawing maps, requiring markers for compasses, transformers, communication stations, and high-voltage line towers. There seem to be too many issues; it’s impossible to learn CAD as a beginner! Please, everyone, help me out!
Points 2 and 5 cannot be fulfilled, and I don’t see the meaning of point 7 You need to send the image at 6 o’clock; basically, the line width can be changed, and it will get thicker or thinner as you use the scroll wheel. Try pedit. You’ll need to find the information by yourself at 8 o’clock.
At 4 o’clock, select an element from the layer you need, then click Layer Separate; this way, that layer will be isolated.
2 o’clock is fine. First, create a text layer; if you haven’t worked on the text layer from the start, you can use pselect or filter to select it. 5. Yes, it’s possible. First, seal both ends and fill it in.
I have some materials that can basically help you solve most of the problems, but my rank is too low to upload them. I’m sorry, let’s talk about it when I grow up!
By practicing, one gradually becomes an expert :) 1. Choose the appropriate font, as different thicknesses result in different visual effects. You can choose the font name as Arial or SimSun, and the font will be thicker. 2. Those that need to have their images changed. 3. “Bolding all selected multiple paragraphs” – I don’t understand what this means.:) 5. Filling H – In “Boundary Pattern Fill”, select “Select Objects”, choose these two lines, and then fill them; no need for the shapes to be closed. 6. The line width cannot be changed; it needs to be determined based on the specific diagram. I also noticed that the line width changes when the roller is adjusted; in fact, it remains at a constant width – it just appears thinner when you zoom in. If you click on the \"Line Width\" option at the bottom of the CAD interface, the width will no longer be displayed, which makes things look neater. 7. The point command: by specifying a location on a polyline, a point is added there, without any change to the polyline itself. i This post was last edited by Shiny Purple Cat on 2009-3-26 17:02 ]
I’ve encountered similar problems too!
Thank you all for your help :) I learned a lot:lol It seems I’ll have to find the materials on my own :(
3 means there are multiple words; select them all, and they will all become bold
5. It seems it won’t work. 7. You can use the dot-drawing command. 8. You need to search carefully on the forum; there’s a lot of information available there
1. Is it possible to make text bold directly when adding it, without having to modify it one by one? 2. Can the text typed be placed on a separate layer, with other elements placed on other layers, so that there’s no need to keep switching layers frequently? 3. Is it possible to bold all selected multi-segment texts at once? 4. How can I select all items on a certain layer without closing other layers first? 5. Is it possible to fill in color between two parallel lines, directly without needing to close those lines first? 6. I’m using someone else’s artwork, and I’ve noticed that the line widths in it cannot be changed. I can change the line width when I draw by myself, but the line width remains unchanged regardless of whether the image is zoomed in or out (that is, when I use the scroll wheel to zoom out, the line width doesn’t change as well). I want the line width to change as well. 7. I want to add a point to a polyline, yet still have it remain a polyline. 8. Most importantly, I need some materials that can be used in CAD, and they should look good. The materials are used for drawing maps, requiring markers for compasses, transformers, communication stations, and high-voltage line towers. There seem to be too many issues; it’s difficult to get started with CAD. 1. If you enter text in English, use ARIAL BLACK as the font setting, as this font is already bold. Points 2, 3, and 4 can be resolved once you learn how to use quick selection – select based on certain conditions and then make changes to all of them. 5. It doesn’t seem to work, but you can use any diagonal line, set the filling angle to 45 degrees, and reduce the filling proportion; this will allow the diagonal line to cover the area and achieve the desired visual effect, as the result will look similar anyway. 6. Using polylines to set the line width can help achieve what you want. 7. Click to break the line at the desired point, then use the JOIN command to combine it, thereby adding another point. 8. Look for examples online; you can also ask your colleagues or classmates for finished drawings related to this field – these basic elements should all be available there
