With the increasing application of AutoCAD in various modern industries, more and more friends are learning AutoCAD, but the few friends who have learned AutoCAD in the author have only reached the level of “useful†and in actual work. There is still a certain gap in the application, and this gap is mainly reflected in the speed of drawing. This article introduces some experiences and techniques on how to improve the drawing speed of AutoCAD for beginners.
First, the hardware preparation
If you want to do something good, you must first sharpen the device. First of all, we should have a suitable computer on the hardware. Of course, it is necessary to run AutoCAD normally. Of course, if you want to be able to draw the drawing comfortably, you need a mouse. And the keyboard, the author believes that the minimum requirement is that the mouse can not drop frames; and as far as the keyboard is concerned, as far as possible, select a keyboard with a concave and convex shape and a good elasticity. These two pieces of Dongdong have the same effect on the draftsman as the kitchen knife in the kitchen. A blunt knife will definitely affect the feeling and speed of a cook.Second, use shortcut commands
If you ask an AutoCAD drafter such a question: What is the most important thing to improve drawing speed? I think many drafters will answer you this way: use shortcut commands to solve problems as much as possible.
Let's use an example to illustrate: There are several ways to draw a line. Many beginners use the mouse to click the line tool on the toolbar and then use the mouse to draw a line in the drawing area of ​​AutoCAD. The professional draftsman will use the left hand to enter the shortcut command "L" for drawing a line on the keyboard, confirm the space, and then draw the line in the drawing area. If you are a beginner in AutoCAD, then I will give you a simple suggestion. At the beginning of learning AutoCAD, try to use the shortcut commands to draw the graphics for your practice.
Maybe some friends will find the file "acad.pgp" in the AutoCAD folder and change it to your favorite shortcut command. I do not recommend that beginners adopt this method at the beginning. In fact, when it comes to basic learning, the commonly used shortcut commands are very simple and easy to remember.
Also take the command to draw a line, beginners can not remember at the beginning or do not know the shortcut command to draw a line is "L", then let us move the mouse to the line button of the drawing toolbar, let the mouse Stop at this position. If you look at it, you will find that a line prompt appears in the status bar below AutoCAD: Create a straight line segment: LINE. Here we know that the complete command for the line is "LINE".
Instead of clicking the line button on the toolbar with your mouse, try typing the first letter "L" of the command directly on the command line and hitting the space to confirm the command (think why we use spaces to confirm the command). Found a command line prompt: L LINE specifies the first point. So we know that the shortcut command to draw a straight line segment is "L", then we will try to use the "L" + space on the keyboard instead of the mouse click toolbar when we encounter the straight line segment, you will find iterative We have remembered this shortcut command a few times. Is not it simple?
In the same way, we can get the shortcut command "C" for drawing the circle, the shortcut command "A" for drawing the arc, the shortcut command "O" for the offset, the shortcut command "M" for moving... but there is The shortcut command can't be found in this way. For example, the complete command to draw a rectangle is known as "RECTANG", but the command we get by inputting the shortcut command "R" is "REDRAW". Try to enter "RE" again. The command is "REGEN", try again to add a "C" input "REC" and get the shortcut command to draw the rectangle is "REC", through the above method we can find the shortcut command of the construction line is "XL", The shortcut command for the polyline is "PL", the shortcut command for the array is "AR", and so on. This kind of learning in the initial practice is very fast. If you are an AutoCAD beginner, try to do your AutoCAD basic exercises in this way. You will find that as long as you use this method repeatedly, your AutoCAD drawing speed will increase quite quickly.Third, the left and right hands of their respective roles here, the right and left hands of each division is: use your left hand to control the keyboard, right hand control mouse (if your dominant hand is left hand naturally another matter). And keep this state as much as possible during practice and future work. Then the above question has an answer: we put the left hand on the standard key of "ASDF", the thumb can easily click the space bar to confirm the command, if we must click the Enter to confirm the command, we need to move the left hand position greatly. Which way is faster, don't you elaborate?
Here again, an equally plausible example: deleting objects. Many beginners of AutoCAD are using the Delete key to delete objects in the drawing, and the author's habit is to use the shortcut command "e" plus spaces to delete objects. why? From a mathematical point of view, perhaps we have a single keystroke here, but let's take a look at the position of these keys on the keyboard. We can make a trade-off: if we put the left hand on the standard key "ASDF" On the top, use the middle finger to click the "E" button. Clicking on the space with the thumb is very easy, but the Delete key is very far from the standard key of our left hand. If we use the left or right hand, click this button and then reset the handle. This time is much longer than the time we clicked the "E" and then the space bar, which is why we use these two keys instead of the Delete key.Fourth, try to look down on the keyboard as much as possible. It is hard to imagine that a person who always needs to look down at the keyboard can be very skilled in computer operation. I believe that friends who are learning AutoCAD are familiar with the computer, so before you continue reading this article, you should first ask yourself: I often look down at the keyboard?
Many friends are familiar with the keyboard, but often because of psychological reasons - such as worrying about pressing the wrong key, etc., always have to bow down to confirm. Remind everyone: Don't worry about pressing the wrong one! Don't look down! These will be big problems that affect your drawing speed in the future! Be sure to replace your eyes with your left hand. It doesn't matter if you make a mistake. Don't try to avoid mistakes by looking at the keyboard, and don't try to correct your mistakes by looking at the keyboard.
Try a few more times with your left hand to click on the key of the click, and practice it several times over and over again. Everyone can do it. In fact, many friends are slow to learn in AutoCAD because there are too many dare to try. The habit of doing it, or the psychology of worrying about making mistakes. If you want to have real improvement, don't worry about making mistakes. Be sure to try it. If you can make more valuable mistakes, you can learn more than you can learn by following the rules!5. Self-examination and improvement
Self-examination for further improvement. There is a term in chess called a recap, also known as "return". Refers to the replay of the record of the game after the game is completed, in order to check the strengths and weaknesses of the game in the game and the key to gains and losses. Generally used for self-study, or ask the master to give guidance analysis. In fact, we can also use this method to improve in the learning of AutoCAD.
After the drawing of a simple graphic has come to an end, click the F2 key on the keyboard to open the AutoCAD text window, and take a step-by-step look at your drawing process: what steps can be improved; what steps are invalid waste operations, under I can't do it; I can use the mirror or array simplification steps, I am not complicated, there is no simpler way to make this graph, etc... After doing this work over and over again, you will find The process of this is a process of well regulating your own drawing habits, and it is also a process that encourages oneself to think. Such a "recovery" is very helpful for us to find "shortcuts" in the drawing process.Sixth, constantly accumulate
accumulation. Learning itself can't be a one-off thing. Skills can be accumulated continuously, but accumulation is unskilled. If you want to be a master, you must constantly learn and accumulate. Of course, it is more important to learn to apply, maybe On a casual day, you find yourself becoming a "prawn".
