 DRAW COMMANDS
1) POINT
• Points can act as nodes to which you can snap objects. You can specify a
full three-dimensional location for a point. The current elevation is
assumed if you omit the Z coordinate value.
 SYSTEM VARIABLES: 1) PDMODE and 2) PDSIZE
 controls the appearance of point objects.
 PDMODE values 0, 2, 3, and 4 specify a figure to draw through the point. A
value of 1 specifies that nothing is displayed
 PDSIZE controls the size of the point figures, except for PDMODE values 0
and 1. A setting of 0 generates the point at 5 percent of the drawing area
height.
 A positive PDSIZE value specifies an absolute size for the point figures.
 A negative value is interpreted as a percentage of the viewport size. The
size of all points is recalculated when the drawing is regenerated.

COORDINATE SYSTEM
1) Cartesian Coordinate:
i) absolute : x,y and ii) Relative : @Δx,Δy
2) Polar Coordinate : @ r<θ
3) Direct: on specifying next point, indicate direction by
cursor and enter distance

 By default, angles increase in the
counterclockwise
direction and decrease in the clockwise
direction.
To specify a clockwise direction, enter a
negative
value for the angle. You can change the
angle
conventions for the current drawing with
UNITS.
