    Default Help with cad2000

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    I have not used this in some 10 years and have problems remember how to set my limits. I am trying to draw a bathroom roughly 12'x25' when I use the setup wizard I set my limits larger than my drawing. Then when I go to my drawing it wont let me draw anything much over 5' wide. Not quite sure what I am doing wrong but any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Don't worry about setting up limits. To draw a rectangle type in rec (or spell it out completely) then choose the D option and give it the length and width of 12 and 25 respectively. Use zoom extents command.

    If you go to View-Regen..then it will allow you to pan over to a larger area..but the larger area will have its limits..just regen again if it isn't big enough again
