Join Shaun Bryant for an in-depth discussion in this video Arcs, part of AutoCAD 2018 Essential Training.
- [Voiceover] We're staying in…our 04_DrawingObjects.dwg file…for this next part of our Drawing Objects section…in our AutoCAD 2017 Essentials course.…We're going to look at drawing an arc to form a wall…that basically separates our reception area…from the main concourse of our building.…Now, you'll notice that the lines…and the circle representing the table…in the reception area there are still in the drawing,…and as we work through, we'll save the drawing,…saving as we go, saving the information…that we put on the drawing.…
Now you'll notice that I've zoomed to the extents…on this particular drawing.…That's because what I've done…is I've created a saved Model View for you…called Reception, and these saved Model Views…save you messing around, zooming and panning all the time…to find the right area on a complex drawing.…So let's, first of all, go to that saved Model View,…that custom view.…Now the quickest way to get to it…is to go over to the left hand part of the screen here.…See the word Top?…If I click there, I can now go to my Custom Model Views,…
