Some useful AutoCAD shortcuts to accelerate your drawing time

In this article, you will be familiar with some useful AutoCAD tricks and shortcuts which can significantly reduce your drawing time.

CHSPACE: This shortcut is used to shift objects in a drawing from layout to model space with the selection of a viewport to move the text or objects into. It is applicable in both directions.

BURST: BURST shortcut can be applied to break out a block/object keeping all its attributes as it is.

NCOPY: Replicates linework or objects out of a nested object into your existing drawing. It is mostly beneficial for fetching XREF linework into existing drawings.

OOPS: OOPS shortcut can adjust your mistake (as long as it’s a delete) regardless how far back it was. Devoid of applying CTRL-Z, OOPS undoes your last erase command keeping all the works unchanged which have been completed since then.

FILEDIA: Fixing this value to 1, facilitates dialog boxes to open in AutoCAD, fixing it to 0 means everything is finished in the command line.

APPLOAD: This shortcut facilitates you to fix which application to load along with opening AutoCAD.

Work with Images: Rather than scaling and rotating images every time, just include the image into a blank drawing and fix its position, scale, and rotation. After getting image as per your choice, save the drawing. It allows you to add that image as a drawing, rather than the image, and all settings remain identical. Specifically ideal for the images like company logos, etc.

To get more information, watch the following video tutorial.

R / REDRAW: Restore the drawing in the viewport.

DIMBASELINE: This shortcut produces a dimension that commences from a baseline of previous dimensions that is linear, angular or coordinate.

ID: Shows point coordinates all through your worksheet.

Autoscale Setting: With it, your default scale factor can be modified by fixing the Auxiliary scale factor to Plot Scale or Dimscale.

How to use revit for generating animated GIFS

In this construction article, you will learn how to use revit for generating your own animated GIFs.

Animated GIFs are most effective while employing a consistent view point and modify something inside the view, as for example the clarity of the elements or the cutting plane of a section box. Here, the cutting plane of a section box is modified in order that the GIF can animate the movement of the section via the building.

Initially, generate the 3D view and activate the section box. It is the starting view and ensure that the section box isn’t cutting the building. This view is titled as a “_01” suffix. A new 3D view template is also generated and included to this view. This template will be applied to manage the clarity of the section box in all the animation views.

After completing it, replicate the view, move the section box into the building by about 20 feet and redefine the view with an “02” suffix.

The entire method of replicating the view, moving the section box, and renaming the view is continued unless the section box has moved through the whole building.

It is recommended to utilize minimum 8 – 10 images. The animation will be smoother as the numbers of images are increased.

As soon as all the views are produced, edit the view template and deactivate the section box.

Step 2 – Export Images

After generating all the images, export them using the “Export Image” dialog. Go to the Revit button, choose “Export” then “Images and Animations” and lastly, “Image”. It will introduce the “Export Image” dialog.

In the “Export Image” dialog, choose the views to export in the “Export Range” section. Suppose, you are going to utilize PNG files, then in the “Format” section, PNG for “Shaded views” and “Non shaded views” are selected. Also, arrange the image size for the images in the “Image Size” section. It is suggested to apply 600 pixels horizontal for animated GIFs.

Choose the output folder then click “OK” to export the images.

Step 3 – Load Images into Photoshop

Now, the image files are ready for the animation, these should be transferred into the GIF file and animated. It will be performed with Photoshop. The initial step is to load the individual image files as layers with the “Load Files into Stack” script. To obtain the script, go to File > Scripts > Load Files into Stack.

Each image will be shown as a separate layer in the “Layers” dialog box.

How to create a flowing & elegant staircase in Revit

In this revit tutorial you will learn the steps for creating the design of a flowing and elegant staircase in Revit.

Given below, some useful revit stair definitions :-

BASE AND TOP LEVELS: Stairs are formed on the basis of selected levels available in the project. If necessary, any offset can be included on these levels.

REQUIRED STAIR HEIGHT: Total distance among the base and the top of the stairs along with the offsets.

REQUIRED NUMBER OF RISERS: It is measured automatically with Revit, by dividing stair height with maximum riser height. This number can be altered to change the slope of the stair.

ACTUAL NUMBER OF RISERS: The number of risers already been modeled.

MAXIMUM RISER HEIGHT: Riser height for your stair will never surpass over this value. This parameter is fixed on the stair type. Normally, equal to code requirements.

ACTUAL RISER HEIGHT: This distance is automatically computed with Revit, by dividing the stair height with the required number of risers.

MINIMUM TREAD DEPTH: On the stair type, indicate the minimum tread depth. While going to start modeling your stair, you should go over this number, but not under.

ACTUAL TREAD DEPTH: By default, this value is identical to minimum tread depth fixed in the stair type. But, if you prefer more depth, a greater value can be set.

MINIMUM RUN WIDTH: Set on the stair type, it is also possible to indicate the minimum run width. It does not contain support (stringers).

ACTUAL RUN WIDTH: By default, it has similarity with the minimum run width. A greater value can be set than the minimum, but a lower value is not recommended.

To learn the entire modeling process, watch the following video.
