Plate 3 Notes
For this next activity you will be making a complete floor plan with all the appropriate labels, callouts,
sections, grid reference, hatch, doors windows, layering, dashed lines and others.
The student must be able to learn how to make and place layers at the appropriate thickness.
Intro: Rainbow pattern we will try to make our layers by following the colors of a rainbow as a basis for
your thickness.
Example
ORANGE=prone to color confusion so use brown=0.2 or 0.15 and use for dimensions
INDIGO&VIOLET= dark in color so use magenta=0.5 use for very thick line
Create another layer named thin line dashed and assign the lintype from continuous to the one shown
below where you click on load
Choose the type of dashed line to be used then click ok
Note do not use true color and color books. Only use index color
Assign the layers by slecting a line then changing it under the following tab
You can also use the match command to match the property of one layer to another layer
Set the one shown below to 1:100 and type regen enter to view dashed lines in scale of 1:100
