AUTOCAD - Parametric Drafting

Question 1

Parametric drafting

Answer 1

a form of drafting in which parameters and constraints drive object size and location to produce drawings with features that adapt to changes made to other features

Question 2

parameters (constraints)

Answer 2

Geometric characteristics and dimensions that control the size, shape, and positions of drawings geometry

Question 3

geometric constraints

Answer 3

geometric characteristics applies to restrict the size or location of geometry

Question 4

dimensional constraints

Answer 4

measurements that numerically control the size or location of geometry

Question 5

underconstrained

Answer 5

describes a drawings that includes constraints, but not enough to size and locate all geometry

Question 6

fully constrianed

Answer 6

describes a drawing in which objects have no freedom of movement

Question 7

over-constrained

Answer 7

describes a drawing that constains too many constraints

Question 8

reference dimensions

Answer 8

A dimension used for reference purposes only. Parentheses enclose reference dimensions to differentiate them from other dimensions

Question 9

geometric constraint bars:

Answer 9

toolbars that allow you to view and remove geometric constraints

Question 10

dynamic format

Answer 10

a dimensional constraint format specifically for controlling the size or location of geometry

Question 11

annotational format

Answer 11

the constraints still look like traditional dimensions, using dimension style. can still control the size and location of geometry

Question 12

dimensional constraint parameters

Answer 12

parameters that form when you insert a dimensional constraint
