AutoCAD®/AutoCAD LT® 2016 Beyond the Basics continues on from the topics covered in the AutoCAD®/AutoCAD LT® 2016 Essentials training guide. It covers more sophisticated techniques that extend your mastery of the program. For example, here you go beyond the basic skill of inserting a block to learning how to create blocks, and beyond the basic skill of using a template to understand the process of setting up a template. You learn skills such as:
- Using more advanced editing and construction techniques
- Adding parametric constraints to objects
- Creating local and global blocks
- Setting up layers, styles, and templates
- Using advanced plotting and publishing options
The AutoCAD/AutoCAD LT 2016 Beyond the Basics training guide is designed for those using
