select the (First side) to be chamfered (distance 1). Select second line or shift-select to apply corner or [Distance/Angle/Method]: select the (Second side) to be chamfered (distance 2).

      Note: When you place the cursor on the second side, AutoCAD displays the Chamfer and allows you to change the Distances before it is actually drawn. If you choose to change the Distance, select the Distance option, enter new distance values then select the 2nd side.

       ANGLE METHOD

      Angle method requires input for the length of the line and an angle.

      1. Select the CHAMFER command

      Command: _chamfer

      (TRIM mode) Current chamfer Dist1 = 1.000, Dist2 = 1.000

      Select first line or [Undo/Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/method/Multiple]: type A <enter>

      Specify chamfer length on the first line <0.000>: type the chamfer length <enter>

      Specify chamfer angle from the first line <0>: type the angle <enter>

      2. Now Chamfer the object

      Select first line or [Undo/Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/mEthod/Multiple]: select the (First Line) to be chamfered. (the length side)

      Select second line or shift-select to apply corner: select the (second line) to be chamfered. (the Angle side)

Image

       OPTIONS:

      Polyline: This option allows you to Chamfer all intersections of a Polyline in one operation. Such as all 4 corners of a rectangle.

      Trim: This option controls whether the original lines are trimmed or remain after the corners are chamfered. (Set to Trim or No trim.)

      mEthod: Allows you to switch between Distance and Angle method. The distance or angle must have been set previously.

      Multiple: Repeats the Chamfer command until you press <enter> or Esc key.

      The COPY command creates a duplicate set of the objects selected. The COPY command is similar to the MOVE command.

      The steps required are:

      1. Select the objects to be copied.

      2. Select a base point.

      3. Select a New location for the New copy.

      The difference between Copy and Move commands:

      The Move command merely moves the objects to a new location.

      The Copy command makes a copy and you select the location for the new copy.

      1. Select the Copy command using one of the following commands:

Ribbon = Home tab / Modify panel / orKeyboard = CO <enter> Image

      2. The following will appear on the command line:

      Command: _copy

      Select objects: select the objects you want to copy

      Select objects: stop selecting objects by selecting <enter>

      Current settings: Copy mode = Multiple

      Specify base point or [Displacement/mOde] <Displacement>: select a base point (P1)

      Specify second point of displacement or <use first point as displacement>: select the

       new location (P2) for the first copy

      Specify second point or [Exit / Undo] <Exit>: select the new location (P2) for the

       next copy or press <enter> to exit.

Image

       Note:

      If you select the option mOde, you may select Single or Multiple copy mode. The default setting is Multiple. It is practical to leave the mode setting at Multiple. If you choose to make only one copy just press <enter> to exit the Copy command.

Image

      The copy command continues to make copies until you press <enter> to exit.

      COPY “Array” option

      The Copy command allows you to make an Array of copies.

      After you have selected the Base point the following prompt appears:

       Specify second point or [Array] <use first point as displacement>:

      If you select the option Array,

      1. Enter the number of items to Array: type in 4 <enter>

      2. Place 2nd Point or [Fit]: Place 2nd point or select F <enter>

Image

      Note: The Array option within the Copy command is a quick method to create multiple copies. For more accurate array options use the Array command.

      COPY using DRAG

      The Drag option allows you to quickly move or copy an object(s).

       EXAMPLE:

      1. Draw a Circle.

      2. Select the Circle.

       5 little boxes appear. These are Grips and allow you to edit the object. Grips will be discussed more in future lessons.

Image

      3. Click on the Circle and hold the right hand mouse button down as you drag the Circle to the right.

Image

      4. When the dragged Circle is in the desired location release the Right Mouse button and an options menu will appear.

Image

      5. Select Move Here, Copy Here, or Cancel.

Move Here: The original object selected will move to the new location.
Copy Here: The original object will remain in it’s original location and a copy will appear in the new location.
