rock1 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 How can I make an enclosed pre specified area in autocad in such a way that a curve remains fixed and if I move one line enclosing it then the other line moves automatically.?

ReMark Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I think you would be looking at a parametric drawing that utilizes geometric and/or dimensional constraints. If I am not mistaken Parametric Constraints were first introduced in AutoCAD 2010 which means 2012 will have them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillerMG Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I think you would be looking at a parametric drawing that utilizes geometric and/or dimensional constraints. I believe ReMark has it spot on. Unfortunately I am not sure as to how though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I'd start by reading up on the parametric constraints feature. Once you understand how it works and what, if any, limitations there are then you should be able to figure out what you need to do all on your own. I recommend searching on "autocad parametric constraints"+"tutorial". You should get a number of good hits (a handful might even be videos).

I did get some interesting videos on constraining the lengths and the vetices of shapes using the parametric feature of AutoCAD. However, I didn't get constraining areas.

ReMark Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Yeah, that could be problematic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
