COMMUNITY TIPS AND TRICKS
Error Check and Clean
Are you opening a dxf file or using a dwg file that
you did not create? If you are, it is good practice to perform a Check
and Clean.
The Check command is a diagnostic tool for examining the
current drawing and correcting errors. For any error detected, a description is
provided in the command window.
The Clean command removes unused References from the drawing.
Flip Command
Use the Flip command to create a
mirror copy of entities, deleting the source entities. The command contrasts to
the Mirror command in that entities do not remain in their
original positions when they move across the mirror axis. Instead they maintain
the same relative position to the symmetry axis, but flip about the specified
mirror axis. You can define the reflection axis freely by specifying two points.
Use Ortho mode to force the mirror line to be parallel to the X- or the Y-axis
of the coordinate system.

Use
the
Hatch/Fill command to fill enclosed areas or specified entities with a
hatch pattern.
Hatching a drawing adds meaning and helps to differentiate the materials and
areas.
Some drawing applications such as construction drawings require hatch
patterns which can increase the clarity and legibility of a drawing. Along
with patterns, you can apply solid hatches to fill in a bounded area with
any color by selecting Fill in the Hatch type dialog.

DraftSight for Windows is now in general release. With that, there are
some exciting new features that have been implemented. One such feature is
the
Tool Matrix. The Tool Matrix is a user interface that behaves like other
palettes, such as the Properties Palette or the Reference Palette.
