Basics - Drawing multiple lines

Anonymous — Sat, 15 May 2021 16:12:30 GMT

Hello all,

I am just starting using Autocad, I am taking an online course and my instructor explained how to draw a polygon (She is using Windows).

Instructions:

1. Type "L"

2. Paste

@5<29.24d

@4<88.76d

@7<25.01d

@7<320.66d

@Anonymous<90.02d

@Anonymous<152.99d

@7<227.29d

@5<172.91d

@4<261.62d

@6<277.44d

@7.1968<303.79d

And the drawing is done.

But it is not working for me 😞

Could anyone help me?

Hi @Anonymous ,

You missed one step: before pasting coordinate sequence, you need to pick start point in the drawing area:

Command: l LINE Specify first point: <-Here you need to pick start point in the drawing area Specify next point or [Undo]: @5<29.24d Specify next point or [Undo]: @4<88.76d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @7<25.01d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @7<320.66d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @10<90.02d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @12<152.99d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @7<227.29d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @5<172.91d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @4<261.62d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @6<277.44d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @7.1968<303.79d Specify next point or [Close/Undo]:
