• F11 = Focus in AccuDrawAccuDraw needs focus.

If you have customized function keys, use: ESC > Space

T, F, S and E

• T = TopRotates the drawing plane to align with the axes in a standard Top view.

• F = FrontRotates the drawing plane to align with

the axes in a standard Front view.

• S = SideRotates the drawing plane to align with the axes in a standard Right view.

• E = Rotate compass 90°Successively pressing E rotates the drawing plane:

– first 90°about its x-axis,

– then 90°about its y-axis,

– and then back to its original rotation.

This is useful for working with any drawing plane orientation, particularly where the model is rotated relative to the drawing file axes.

Practice 4

The objective is to draw one linestring that goes straight through the holes.The line must be joined, and all line rotations must be aligned to global: Top, front and Side

– Select Place Smartline

– Enter the first vertex at: “start here!”.

– The distance from the edge of the box and line-ends are 3 units.

– The result can be checked by rotateting your view to: Top, Front og RightAll lines must be horizontal or vertical

– Use the AccuDrawshortcuts: T, F, S, E, O and Enter

• Z = Lock Z

• Temporarily lock AccuDraw Z, when used once it will unlock, unless sticky Z lock is enabled.

• LZ = Sticky Z

– Same settings as: Settings > AccuDraw > Sticky Z Lock

– When this using sticky Z lock, the AccuDraw Z will continue to be locked until unlocked.

– You can see an extra compass inside the AccuDraw compass if sticky Z lock is enabled.

Practice 5

– Select place a smartline

– Begin the line at point 1

– Rotate to Top

– Lock Z, and continue to point 2, 3, 4 and 5.the goal is to keep the Z value locked.

– Try with and without Sticky Z, and notice the difference

Practice 6

– Select place a smartline

– Begin the line at point 1

– Rotate to Front

– Lock Z, and continue to point 2, 3, 4 and 5.the goal is to keep the Z value locked.

– Try with and without Sticky Z, and notice the difference

• RQ = Rotate QuickUsed to quickly and temporarily rotate the drawing plane with a single point.

Practice 7

• Open model: : 07_AccuDraw– Select Place Block

– Press F11 and then press <T> for top rotation.

– Following the status bar prompt, snap to the upper left vertex of the vertical face and accept with a data point.

– Press <RQ> and, following the status bar prompt, snap to the lower left vertex of the base, then accept the new rotation with a data point.

– Snap to the right lower vertex of the base and accept the new block with a data point.

• RE = Rotate ElementRotates the drawing plane to match the orientation of a selected element.

– The rotation will stay until you select another rotation or “reset” with <T>

Practice 8

– Select Place Circle

– Snap to and place center of the circle on the center of the rotated block on top

– Press <RE> to rotate the compass

– Snap to the edge of the block, and accept with a datapoint

– Press .25 to set the radius, and accept with a datapoint

RX, RY, RZ

When the drawing plane is rotated to orientations other than the standard Top, Front, and side, often it is useful to be able to access planes at 90° to the current orientation. AccuDraw has keyboard shortcuts that rotate the drawing plane 90° about its individual axes.

These shortcuts — <R>,<X> or <R>,<Y> or <R>,<Z> — can be used to spin the drawing plane through 90° about the selected axis, any number of times, until its orientation is exactly as you desire.

• RX = Rotates the drawing plane 90°about its x-axis.

• RY =Rotates the drawing plane 90°about its y-axis.

• RZ =Rotates the drawing plane 90°about its z-axis.

Practice 9

– Select Place Block

– Snap to the upper left vertex of the vertical face and accept with a data point. and make sure that the AccuDraw compass is aligned to the top face (Practice 8)

– Press <RY> and notice that the AccuDraw compass rotate

– Snap to the upper right vertex of the face and press <O>

– Move the curser upwards, and set the hight to: .5 and accept with a datapoint

• RA = Rotate ACS

– Used to permanently rotate the drawing plane by three points. Because it rotates the active ACS, this rotation will still be active after the tool in use is exited. If on, the tool setting Use Current Origin causes the drawing plane origin to be used as the x-axis origin, thereby eliminating the need to enter an extra data point. Of course, in many cases it is desirable to be able to define the x-axis origin at a different location than the drawing plane origin.

1. With the focus in the AccuDraw window, press <R>,<A>.

2. Enter a data point to locate the x-axis origin.

3. Enter a data point to define the direction of the x-axis.As a result, the plane of the y-axis relative to the x-axis is implied (perpendicular to the x-axis). All that remains, is to define the direction of the y-axis in that plane.

4. Enter a data point to define the direction of the y-axis about the x-axis.

Left: Defining the x-axis direction.

Right: Defining the y-axis direction (only necessary in 3D).

WA, GA, RC

• WA = Write ACS

• GA = Get ACS

• RC = Rotate to Current ACS

Practice 10

Open the model 10_AccuDraw

– Press <F11> to get focus in AccuDraw

– Press: <RA> to define/rotate an ACS

– Enter the new ACS origin at point 1.

– Define the x‐axis by placing a data point on point 2.

– Enter a data point on point 3 to identify the y‐axis direction, and the new ACS will display.

– To create a new ACS, Get focus in AccuDraw <F11>, <WA> to give the ACS a name i.e. CornerACS

– Draw a circle on the corner, and notice the AccuDraw compass rotation rotation.

Practice 10

• Now define and save Auxiliary coordinate systems that is placed on:

– Top

– Bottom

– Front

– Right

• Place new elements, and use the different saved ACS’s. Recall the ACS with Accudraw shortcut: <GA>

LP, LA, LS, LZ

• LP = or F8 = Lock ACS Grid Plane

– Toggles ACS Grid Plane lock, which toggles the ACS Plane and ACS Plane Snap locks, and the Grid view attribute for all views. LP = LA + LS + Turn on grid

• LA Toggles the ACS Plane lock.

– Controls whether viewing operations and AccuDraw shortcuts for <T>, <F> and <S> are relative to the design coordinates or the ACS.

• LS Toggles the ACS Plane snap lock.

– If on, and AccuDraw is active, the first snap point is forced to lie on the Active ACS's xy plane (z=0). Further snap points then are controlled by AccuDraw's settings. Using AccuDraw's Sticky Z setting, you can force all further snap points to remain at the same Z level (Sticky Z on) or you can “float” in the Z direction (Sticky Z off).

– If on, and AccuDraw is not active, all snap points are forced to lie on the Active ACS's xy plane (z=0).

• LZ Toggles the Sticky Z Lock, which is used in conjunction with ACS Plane Snap. Lock to force a series of snap points to lie on the active ACS' XY plane (Z=0).

Practice 11

– Select Place Smartline

– Snap the corner of the shape (point 1), and accept with a datapoint

– Rotate AccuDraw compass to Top <T>, and press <LP> to lock ACS Grid Plane

– Snap and accept at point 2 and 3, and notice which depth the new line is placed at.

– Press <LP> to unlock ACS Grid Plane

Practice 12

• Open model:12_AccuDraw

Check that your ACS is rotated, and aligned to one of the faces

– Rotate the view to top view, Notice how the model looks like

– Now activate AccuDraw <F11>, and press <LA>

– Rotate again to Top view,With the ACS Plane lock activated, the top view is the ACS top view

– Unlock with <LA> Top view with

No ACS Plane LockTop view with

ACS Plane Lock

Practice 13

• Open model:13_AccuDraw

Check that your ACS is rotated, and aligned to one of the faces

– Place a smartline at point 1,2 and 3.

– Reset

– Place a new smartline at point 1,

– Then press <LS>

– And continue the line in point 2 and 3,Unlock with <LS>

• RV = Rotate viewRotates the active view to match the drawing plane.

Practice 14

– Draw a smartline from point 1 to 2

– With focus in AccuDraw press:<RV>

– Notice that the view rotates, and the red direction is now the view X-axis, and green is view Y-axis.
