In the AutoCAD Tutorial : Drawing a Floor Plan (Basic) Part 1, it is shown how to draw a basic floor plan. However, in that tutorial, the plan has not been hatched and dimension-ed. In this AutoCAD Tutorial : Drawing a Floor Plan (Basic) Part 2 the steps of hatching and dimensioning the plan are shown.
The steps for this AutoCAD Tutorial are :
1. Drawing the hatches using Hatch command. Click hatch, and the opened panel, choose Add: Pick Point, then click in the area that will be hatched. End the area selection by clicking enter. Choose the type of the hatches in Swatch. After choosing the type of the hatch, set the angle of the hatch on Angle. This will make the hatch rotate in certain degrees according to your setting. If you want it default just leave the degree as 0. Set thescale of the hatch on Scale. This command will affect the size of the hatce. The result is shown on the related AutoCAD Tutorial video.
2. Drawing the dimension lines. Use Dimension > Linear command (see related AutoCAD Tutorial video) to start dimensioning.
