Parametric drawing is the technique of making drawings using a set of parameters that help maintain the relationships between different components of a drawing, part, or assembly. AutoCAD is not a parametric software; software such as Fusion 360 and Autodesk Inventor are intrinsically parametric. But despite AutoCAD not being parametric software, it has tools that help us make 2D drawings with parameters and constraints.
In the following section, we will learn how to make a simple drawing using parameters and constraints. We will also use the formulas to add relations between different parts of the drawing.
