How do you know if you have Scaled a drawing  right in Auto CAD ie 1-40 or 1-20.?

If it is drawn 1:1, and you are scaling the drawing through printing, then try  print previews at those scales.  If it fits, then it's good.\n    If you scaled it when actually drawing it in cad, then follow juan4824's advice.  at a scale of 1:20, a line in CAD should measure 20 times LESS than the real life object it represents.  Example, a wall which is 20' in real life would measure 12"(1 ft) in CAD.  The same is true for 1:40 scale.  You can measure a line in Autocad using the DISTANCE command.  Type in DISTANCE, autocad will ask you to pick the first point.  Pick one point on the line.  The Autocad will ask you to pick the second point.  Pick the other point of the line.  Autocad will give you 4 distances.  The DELTA distance.  This is the one your interested in.  It gives you the linear distance along the line.  You'll also see X distance, Y distance, And Z distance.  The are lengths along various axis, and you're probaly not interested in these.\nHope this helps.  Good luck.

you can check the dwg file properties like the first poster suggested, that should give you some idea, if they all have the same file size, creation date etc.. you know there is a problem.\n\nalse, try the 'time' command with the dwg open it gives you total elapsed time that the dwg has been open, that may help you too.\n\nthe command line doesnt save the commands used once you close a drawing.\n\nto make it easier in the future you'll probably need to look at creating something like 3 different but similar assignments to give out. just my 2 cents.\ngood luck

thats easy, just chaeck your points and click on the link. thaen look at the second chart and look at the 1st and 4th colums

You will not legally be able to download a version of Auto CAD without paying for it. You can go to their websites and get a trial version I believe.

Draw a straight line .now plot three points S,T and R on it ,taking ST=3.8 cm and TR=1.4 cm.\nWrite the distances 38 in betweenS and T and 14 between Tand R.your sketch is complete.\nNow ,rite the followin unde the sketch:-\nSR=ST+TR=38+14=52.

I've used AutoCad professionally, and IMHO it's a bit steep in price for less than very high volume work.  Also, even if your drawings are done in Autocad, the company building your desk will often want drawings done in "industry standard" formats so their workers can understand you drawing with the minimum number of phone calls for explanations, etc.  \n\nI'd recommend that you take a beginners' course in Autocad at a community college in your area.  That way you'll pick up the core basics of CAD (and drafting standards in general)  quickly, you can get any questions answered from a real live person, and you'll be able to get pointers on other lower cost drafting software from the instructor.\n\n-------\n\nAutocad (and CAD programs in general) are a whole lot better than the old manual "pencil and paper" "drawing board" methods (been there, etc.), as a time saver, especially for very detailed or large (buildings, cars) projects.  But even with CAD, you still have to be able to convey the required information to the shop making your stuff - which is why I still recommend taking the course from a real person who should have a handle on real-world requirements for drawings.

I think all you have to do is plug in a few values for C to get a graph.  For example, try 0, 5, 10, 15, 20.  It's continuous so you can connect the dots.\n\n(0,0), (5,87.5), (10,350), (15,787.5), (20,1400)\n\nTotal labor for 20 is 1400.

It's like what you count by on the y axis of a graph.  Like if you're counting by 10's, going 10,20,30,40... your scale interval would be 10.  Or 2,4,6,8 and so on, your scale interval would be 2.  It's just whatever you count by.

Yes,to check it. Go to MS Paint, open the image there, Go to View Menu, Then zoom to Large size.

i would prefer import the scanned picture to Illustrator CS2 it has a function to vectorize thr scan and it will looks like you draw in computer anf you will have the ability to scale down/up without losing any detail.

It's difficult to know from your question what exactly it is you've been asked to do, but here goes...\n\nA scale factor can be expressed as a ratio between two things e.g if the scale factor is two, then the ratio beteween the two things you are comparing is 2:1 meaning that the bigger thing is twice the size of the smaller.  Thinking of it in this way can help you to reverse a scale more easily e.g. if you're told a length has been enlarged by a factor of 2 and that the new length is 4cm, you can see from the ratio that rather than multiplying by 2 you need to multiply by 1/2 to find the answer this time.  It helps if you line up your ratios:\nold : new\n  1  :  2\n  ?  :  4\n\nIf you are trying to produce an enlargement by a scale factor, you will need to follow a line from your centre of enlargement to each point on your shape.  You need to measure the length of each of these lines and then extend it in the same direction.  To find where the corresponding point on your enlarged shape is, you will need to multiply the distance from the centre to the original point by the scale factor.  This will give you the distance along the line from the centre that you need to draw the new point.\n\nIf you are working on squared/graph paper, then you can count the number of squares across and then up/down from the centre to each point on the original shape and multiply these distances by the scale factor to find out how to get from the centre of enlargement to the corresponding point on the new shape.  e.g. if you go 3 squares right and 1 square down to get to a point from the centre of enlargement, and the scale factor is 3, to find the new point you will need to go 9 squares right and 3 squares down.\n\nIf you are working with lengths, areas and volumes, you must remember that if a length increases by 3 times its original value the areas which correspond to it will increase by 9 times (3 squared) and the volume by 27 times (3 cubed).  If you get stuck, look at the units in the question.  If you're asked to find a volume if an area increases, for example, then square root the scale factor to take it back to a length factor before cubing it to get the volume factor (this is the same as raising the area factor to the power of 3/2).  Similarly if you start with a volume you will need to take the cube root to find the length scale factor.\n\nWithout knowing more about what you're looking for, that's the best information I can give you.

Just type in the search area corel draw 12 and it will find it. Once you find the one you want, download it. But beware of viruses.  I got one when I tryed to download photoshop.

Simply read Lost N Forgoten's answer.  It is dead on. 20/20 is "perfect" and most eye charts have about 12-14 lines that measure up to 20/400.  The eye chart that measures this is called a Snellen acuity meter.

open autocad and register the product the serial number will appear in the registration form \npaste it in the key generarator (keygen) the get the activation code and then paste it in the registration form in the autocad application
