Having problem with zoom/pan!

ChloeG · 发表于 2022-7-8 12:12:06

Hello everyone I'm new here, and i am a total beginner with Autocad, Im taking an 'introduction to CAD' course. I'm not learning much, all we do is take notes and get stressed out on deadlines, so im gonna be loads here annoying you experts

Right, my main concern is zooming on Autocad, sounds silly i know but here's the thing...

(Note: we use Millimetres in my school)
I am working on a floor plan that is 13200 long, and 14400 width.

So i used Multiline. typed 13200. woah the line is way too long, when i scroll up or use PAN i cant seem to find the end of the line!

What do i do, guys?

hey there, i tried that didnt work.

command: ml
13200

zoom
extents
it said: >Specify corner of window, enter a scale factor (nX or nXP), or
[All/Center/Dynamic/Extents/Previous/Scale/Window/Object] : extents
** Requires a regen, cannot be transparent

You can also double click the mouse wheel to zoom extents in modelspace.

You're aware that the mouse wheel allows you to zoom in and out within the drawing, are you not? I'm assuming of course that Arch 2009 is similar to vanilla AutoCAD 2009. Please confirm or deny.

I have a question for you now. Is there an aerial view or birdseye view option in Arch 2009?

ChloeG · 发表于 2022-7-8 12:39:02

lol yes i am aware of the zoom in zoom out. But i must not lie, i am a total beginner and for some reason i struggle with autocad at times!

and i just discovered theres an aerial view on autocad architecture

Tankman - what a warm welcome, thank you! lol

and BOB'27T - cheers, i think you made my life a lot easier.

Sorry for bringing up this thread i just felt the need to reply.

Is this a USB mouse?

When you go to the Control Panel and click on mouse properties what does it say on the Hardware tab under Devices: Name?

Yes, it's a USB mouse. It says "Microsoft USB Comfort Optical Mouse 3000 (Intellipoint)
