Introduction to CADian IntelliCAD
 |
Working with coordinates |
|
|
|
(1) Absolute coordinates
In the CADian IntelliCAD, origin(0,0) is always lower-left of the screen. Absolute coordinates are used to input the coordinate value based on the origin. When you know the absolute coordinates of the drawing entity, you use it.
(Input method) X coordinate value, Y coordinate value

: LINE or L ¡¡
Start point of line: 3,3 ¡¡
Angle/Length/: 6,3 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: 6,6 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: 3,6 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: 3,3 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: ¡¡
(2) Relative coordinates
Relative coordinates are used to input the incremental value of X and Y based on the last selected point instead of the origin.
(Input method) @ X Incremental value, Y incremental value

: LINE or L ¡¡
Start point of line: (pick P1)
Angle/Length/: @5,0 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: @0,5 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: @-5,0 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: @0,-5 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: ¡¡
(3) Relative polar coordinates
Relative polar coordinates are used to indicate the point using the distance and angle based on the reference point. This method is very often used during drawing.
(Input method) @distance

: LINE or L ¡¡
Start point of line: (pick P1)
Angle/Length/: @5<0 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: @5<90 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: @5<180 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: @5<270 ¡¡
Angle/Length/Follow/Undo/: ¡¡
