select the southern end of the line you just clicked to – click when you can see the blue square. choose the upper Eastern edge of the rectangular prism you have just created and click it – see picture. It is in the top right hand corner of the panel and may be hidden under the extract edges command. select copy edges tool from the solid editing panel. I recommend saving the image and doing the same while you work. 
I like to work with the picture of the object we are modeling open, so I split my screen between AutoCAD and the picture. if you just see a square that says TOP just click one of its corners and you will see a cube.
we can do this by going to the view cube and clicking the corner between front, left and top or we can use the view controls menu (beside the visual styles controls menu) and change it to SW isometric.We can see the front, left and top sides of the object we have chosen to model, so we should choose a view with these three sides visible. We need to choose what view we will start with: To choose how AutoCAD displays your model (solid, line drawing) choose from the visual styles menu. in the very top bar, next to the save/print icons, press the drop down menu and select 3D modeling.We are drawing a 3D object so we will use the 3D modeling workspace. Now we need to choose which work space to work in: choose acad.dwt as the template, and open it.
press the plus (+) icon beside any open tabs or press ctrl + N. If this happens just use the mouse's scroll wheel to move the view a little and the lines should reappear.įirstly, start a new document in AutoCAD: TIP: after some commands some of the lines you have drawn seem to disappear. press esc before you press undo because you can't undo while using a tool. If it is at the top of the menu you can just press enter. to find a command or tool just type the first few letters of the command's title and then select it from the drop down menu that will appear. use wireframe to draw most of the time, and realistic or conceptual to preview what it will look like in real life. change between visual styles (solid, line drawing) with the visual styles controls. click and drag the view cube to create custom views. click on faces, edges or corners to jump to different views. use the view cube to change the direction of the view. use scroll wheel to zoom in or out of the model or press and drag the scroll wheel to move around the model. Throughout the tutorial I will provide more detail: I have put together a few important points to use as a reference when first using AutoCAD.
