Thus you either must create many separate masking regions to get all your required edges. The section on the US National CAD Standard was very well explained and clear.

I really liked the graphics in the book that showed the AutoCAD icons. I must tell you about a few things that I really liked about Donnie’s AutoCAD book….ġ. They are very informative and once in a while you think to yourself, “Wow, I didn’t know that!” I have used AutoCAD for the last 22 years and I was still finding little tips and tricks that I didn’t know about.

( i always create legends at 1:1000) To make sure AutoCAD finds these missing entities you need to repair. I also found that it was very difficult to put down! Donnie’s writing style is very easy to read and makes for very interesting reading.
