What are AutoCAD Commands?

AutoCAD helps to draw our concept of design mostly in 2D format. In AutoCAD to draw any object commands are used. Commands are the shortcut keys on your system that will allow the software to draw your design. In this topic, we are going to learn about the List of AutoCAD Commands.

List of Basic AutoCAD Commands

Here the concerned area is to tell the list of AutoCAD commands to use in this software

  • L Command- This is the most common command used in this software. To use this command user has to type L on the taskbar provided at the bottom of the screen and then press enter. User has to define the starting point and endpoint. It will allow him to draw a simple line. The line can also be defined in the polar firm by providing angle and radius.
  • C command- To use this user has to type C in the taskbar. It will allow the user to draw a circle by providing a point and radius.
  • PL command- This will make Poly Line in your drawing. The endpoint of a first line will act as a starting of the second line and so on.
  • REC command- This command is used to draw a rectangle in Auto CAD. To specify the length, breadth of a rectangle user has to specify a starting point and a point diagonally opposite to the first point.
  • POL command- This will allow the user to construct a polygon. To use this command user has to specify the number of edges, the center of the polygon and also tell that the circle will be inscribed inside or circumscribed outside the polygon.
  • ARC command- This will allow the user to create an arc. The software will ask the user about the starting point/center of the arc with 2 endpoints.
  • CO command- This is used to copy on the object. To use this user has to select an object and paste it at its desired location.
  • AL command- This command allows the user to align an object with another object. To use this one has to specify the source and destination point of the object. The source point is the location of the object which is to align and the destination point is the desired location. Users can also scale the source objects with respect to the destination object.
  • AR command- This command allows us to create an array of objects. Users can create an array according to the desired profile.
  • CHA command- This will create a chamfer between 2 non-parallel lines.
  • E command- This will erase the selected object from the Auto CAD window.
  • EX command- This will extend the object about the profile. To use this one has to select the object to be extended and then after pressing enter one has select object up to which it has to be extended.
  • TR command- This will trim the object. To use this one has to select the object to be trimmed and then press enter. After that one has to select the object about which the object has to trim.
  • RO command- This command will rotate the object about the specified point. To use this one has to select the object to be rotated and then select a base point about which object is to be rotated.
  • O command- This command will offset the object up to the desired distance. To use this user has to select the object to offset and then specify the distance up to which is to be offset.
  • J command- This command will allow objects to join together.
  • M command- This command will allow moving the object. To use this one has to select the object to be moved and then specify the point about which it has to move.
  • JPGOUT command- This command will save your Auto CAD drawing in .jpeg format.
  • ME command- This command will measure your concern object dimensions.
  • COL command- This command will open a dialogue box for choosing the desired color.
  • DIV command- This command will divide your object into different segments. For example, a line is to be divided into parts
  • F command- This command will provide a fillet/arc between 2 intersecting lines. To use this one has to select 2 intersecting lines and then press enter.
  • H command- This command will provide a hatch to some specific area of your drawing. While using this command one has to take into mind that the area should be fully closed up otherwise this command will not work.
  • G command- This command will group your objects together into one single object.
  • I command- This command will insert a block inside your drawing. After pressing this command user has to browse the location of the block to be inserted inside the drawing.
  • LA command- This command will allow the user to open a dialogue box in which a user can manage the layers inside the drawing.
  • PE command- This command will edit the polyline. After pressing the command software will ask to select all the polylines to be close, join, adjust the width, edit vertex, fit lines, change it into spline, de curve lines.
  • SP command- This command will check the spelling of all the words inside the drawing.
  • TB command- This command will allow inserting a table with the desired number of rows and columns inside the drawing.
  • PO command- This command will allow the user to insert points inside the object as per user requirements.
  • PU command- This command will open a dialogue box that will allow the user to remove unused/ unwanted elements inside the drawing.
  • RE command- This command will regenerate your drawing with the updates you had done in your drawing.
  • REN command- This will allow the user to rename your layers, blocks inside the drawing in case you want to change their names.
  • T command- This will allow the user to insert multi-line text inside your drawing.
