Certiport Test Questions with Verified
Solutions
Lock - ANS-Objects are displayed but cannot be modified. Snaps still apply.
Freeze - ANS-Objects are not displayed, plotted, hidden, rendered, or regenerate.
Plot - ANS-Controls which layers are plotted, when plot is off objects are still displayed.
On/Off - ANS-Simple controls which layers display and do not display objects.
Plot Style - ANS-Changes the plot style associated with the selected layer.
Transparency - ANS-Controls the level of visibility for the objects on the layer.
LAYOUT or LIMITS - ANS-Will plot everything within the printable area of the specified
paper size, with the origin calculated from 0,0 in the layout.
EXTENTS - ANS-Plots the portion of the current space of the drawing that contains
objects. All geometry in the current space is plotted. The drawing may be regenerated
to recalculate the extents before plotting.
DISPLAY - ANS-Will plot the view in the current view port in the selected model tab or
the current paper space view in the layout.
WINDOW - ANS-Will plots any portion of the drawing that you specify. When you select
Window, the Window button becomes available. Click the Window button to use the
pointing device to specify the two corners of the area to be plotted, or enter coordinate
values.
VIEW - ANS-Plots a view that was previously saved with the VIEW command. You can
select a named view from the list.
**If there are no saved views in the drawing, this option is unavailable. When the View
option is selected, a View list is displayed that lists the named views that are saved in
the current drawing. You can select a view from this list to plot.
PLINE - ANS-Creates a 2D polyline, a single object that is composed of line and arc
segments.
Arc - ANS-Switches you from a linear segment to an arc segment
, Half-width and width - ANS-Modify the 2D thickness of the segment, both the starting
and ending widths are specified. Use the same values for uniform width and different
values for creating a different sized ends (such as creating arrows)
PEDIT - ANS-Edits an existing polyline you select (we will discuss 2D only)
Spline - ANS-Creates arcs guided by but not passing through vertices of the polyline
Close - ANS-Connects your last vertex to your first vertex, making it a closed figure.
Note that this option will be OPEN if the selected polyline was already closed.
Join - ANS-Adds segments connected to and selected to currently selected polyline,
such as lines and arcs.
Width - ANS-Modifies the existing width of all segments
Edit vertex - ANS-Extensive editing of any vertex in the selected polyline, many options
are nested
Fit - ANS-Creates arcs that pass through each chosen vertex of the polyline.
Decurve - ANS-Returns a polyline to straightened segments
Ltype gen - ANS-Changes if the linetype is regenerated from each vertex
Reverse - ANS-reverses the order of vertices as drawn
Undo - ANS-undoes the previous operation in pedit
Grip Edit Modes - ANS-Stretch
Move
Rotate
Scale
Mirror
STRETCH - ANS-Stretch a vertex, options are contextual to the object type
Options: Add/remove a vertex, lengthen, and a few more
MOVE - ANS-Move an object from that point
Options: Basepoint and Copy
Window - ANS-Plots any area specified by the command.
(Will ask you to select a rectangle)
View - ANS-Plots a view previously saved with the view command
