Working with Hatches, Text, and Dimensions
A drawing is meaningless without annotations such as text and dimensions. So far, we have learned how to create drawings and manage large datasets using different drawing management tools, but we have not yet looked at any dimensioning tools. In this chapter, we will learn how to add annotations such as dimensions, text, and multileaders to our drawings, to make our drawings relevant. Along with annotations, we will also learn how to make Hatch patterns and colored gradients in our drawings.
By the end of this chapter, you will be able to add dimensions, text, and multileaders to any drawings, and you will have also learned how to modify them as per the drawing standards and specific requirements.
In this chapter, we will discuss the following topics:
- Filling an area with hatches
- Adding color gradients
- Adding text to a drawing
- Working with dimensions
- Working with multileaders
So, let’s begin this...
