I worked with Solidworks, CATIA, and Autocad using older versions. I watched loads and loads of guides for these older versions but they are kinda outdated so I'm watching your Guide from its start to notice every single change, I gotta say that you are BY A MILE the best teacher I've watched ..ever.
You talk about every single detail, slowly without jumping around like crazy and without leaving us wondering, this is true teaching. Thanks so much sir.

[@jelenazoric3637]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. As a beginner, I could understand everything explained in this video. Your English is perfectly understandable, coming from someone who's native language is also not English.

[@CADinblack]

Hello Jelena. I am happy this video helped you!

[@michaelojukwu8809]

Just what i needed

[@Mawyman2316]

14:00 You are not locked into that axis, you just have to hit TAB to allow you to switch to the polar angle and you can swap back and forth to specify any changes you want before confirming the second point.
So you can, for example, type 100, hit TAB, type 45 for 45 deg, then hit TAB, edit it to 95 if you suddenly realize you want 95, tab back 24 deg, etc. Its not locked in till you actually click the second point down. Give it a try because it makes things way less rigid, this also applies to autodesk inventor and other 3D CAD packages, on almost any tool with multiple input types.
Edit: Ah okay you go into this, fantastic! I had thought you might have left it out to not being confusing for beginners which I think would have handicapped them a bit in the speed department.

[@CADinblack]

new friend here. stay con

[@user-iz8bc8ph2d]

14:10 Orthomode
14:40 Draw a line with an angle

[@megavarshinim4157]

what units and precision values u have used to draw?

[@mariatevyants3928]

What units should the file be set up in in order to complete the exercises you have provided?

[@CADinblack]

In the exercises you can just use the units that you want. The intention was just to practice basic drawing skills, regardless the units. Thanks for watching.

[@mariatevyants3928]

@@CADinblack I understand that but the exercises have specific dimensions (for example, 20), and if I do not set the appropriate units and type in 20 when drawing the line, the line ends up being the wrong size....

[@dewangjagtap4912]

I think units is important it should be in part 1 or 2

[@sparkyflame4152]

hi is there a free version download of this autocad version for students ? thanks

thanks for tutorials but i could not reach the HW

[@campred302]

where can I find the pdf of the exercises for the lessons?

[@hamzah19988]

hi i am a beginner when i draw line with two points by their coordinates such as (10,5) and (20,5) it gives me line with angle why ? what should i turn off
many thanks

[@CADinblack]

Hello Hamzeh! That shouldn't happen if you insert that coordinates. Are you pressing TAB to switch from Xcoordinate to Ycoordinate?

[@alyamin1146]

I am a student of civil engineering,, is this course perfect for me?

[@salmasubhani2744]

Yes AutoCAD is a very basic software for civil engineering students
