TRAINING
When using Blocks in DraftSight, you can increase your productivity by adding Attribute data to them. Block Attribute definitions let you attach variable or constant text to Blocks. When you insert a Block containing Block Attributes, you are prompted to specify values for each Block Attribute (unless the value is defined with a constant value).
Use the Elliptical Arc command when you are creating an open Ellipse.
like an Ellipse, an Elliptical Arc has a center, but has a longer radius along its major axis and a shorter radius along its minor axis. An Elliptical Arc, however, is not closed like an ellipse; but is open similar to a Radial Arc.
