Posts 6 – Command Move, Copy, Erase, Explode in Autocad
The moving and copying operations and operations that we use often when working on CAD projects. Refer to the following article of Taimienphi.vn to learn Autocad commands such as Move, Copy, Erase, Explode.
1. Move command in Autocad
Move command in Autocad used to change, move the position of an object in the drawing area.
To use the Move command in Autocad, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Select object to move.
Step 2: Click on the icon as shown below.
Step 3: Select the point where you want to move the object there with a mouse click.
Step 4: Move and drop the object there.
Note: When moving an object you can activate ORTHO mode and use the command area to enter the exact distance you want to move the object. ORTHO mode ensures you move the object in a straight line.
For example
Assuming to move the 6 circles below to the right, you follow the steps below:
Step 1: Activate ORTHO mode to restrict the cursor moving.
Step 2: Select the circles.
Step 3: Click the Move icon.
Step 4: Select the point where you want to move the object.
Step 5: Move the cursor to the right, hold the mouse in that position and type 55 and press Enter.
The final result should look like this:
2. Copy command in Autocad
The COPY command in Autocad works similar to the Move command, except that it is used to copy a copy of the original object in its place.
This command works the same way as in other application windows, just use Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V to copy and paste objects in Autocad.
To copy objects in Autocad, the first step is to select the objects, then use Ctrl + V and Ctrl + C. In addition, you can also activate ORTHO mode and enter certain distances and angles to set. copy.
3. Erase command in Autocad
The Erase command allows you to delete objects in Autocad. Note that this command will delete the entire object, not part of it.
To delete objects in Autocad, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Select the object you want to delete.
Step 2: Click on the Erase icon as shown in the image above to delete the object.
Alternatively, you can delete the object in the following way:
Step 1: Select object to delete.
Step 2: Press DEL key on the keyboard to delete the object.
4. Explode command in Autocad
The Explode command allows splitting an object into component objects. In some cases when using Autocad, a group of objects can be locked into a single object. Or suppose that a rectangle is made up of 4 different lines.
If we use the RECTANG command to draw a rectangle, we cannot select a line in the rectangle without selecting the entire shape. The rectangle is made up of 4 lines, so if we want to divide the rectangle into 4 separate lines, we must use the EXPLODE command.
