The create tools can be accessed by using the blue colored entity toolbar (Or their individual Keyboard Shortcuts or Command Line keywords). Creation tools primary function is to draw entities through a user friendly process of steps.
Start-Middle-End Arc: Used to create an arc entity using start, middle and end points. Start-Center-End Arc: Used to create an arc entity using start, center and end points. Start-Center-Angle Arc: Used to create an arc entity using start and center points and an angle. Start-Center-Chord Length Arc: Used to create an arc entity using start and center points and a chord length. Start-End-Angle Arc: Used to draw arcs from a star point, an end point, and an included angle.
Center-Radius Circle: Used to create circles by specifying the center point and a point to define radius. Quadrant-Quadrant Circle: Used to create circles by specifying two opposite points on the circle which in conjunction set the location and size of the circle.
Center-Radius Ellipse: This tool is used to draw ellipse entities by specifying the center point and then the major and minor axis.
Quadrant-Quadrant Ellipse: This tool is used to draw ellipse entities by specifying opposite points on the ellipse.
Elliptical Arc: This tool is used to draw an ellipse (using the Center-Radius method) and then to turn it into an arc by specifying the angle at which it starts and ends.
Aligned Dimension: Used to create a dimension entity that aligns to two user directed points. Linear Dimension: Used to create a Dimension entity that depicts the linear distance between to user defined points. Ordinate Dimension: Used to create a Dimension entity that displays either the X or Y distance from the user specified origin. Radial Dimension: Used to create a Dimension entity that depicts the radius of an entity. Diametric Dimension: Used to create a Dimension entity that depicts the diameter of an entity. Angular Dimension: Used to create a Dimension entity depicting an angle specified from the user supplied center, start and end points.
