FLATSHOT TO CONVERT 3D DRAWING TO 2D DRAWING IN AUTOCAD

For example, we are going to convert 3d object as below to 2d drawing by using FLATSHOT command. 

The steps are as following: 

a.       Assume that firstly we are going to create 2D Drawing of Top View. So that, we have to change the view to be Top View. Go to ribbon of Visualize and choose Views menu then click Top View icon. It will appear as below.

b. Type FLATSHOT on command line, and then it will come up FLATSHOT dialog box as below.

c.       Notice that the result of 2D drawing which is going to be created will be formed as a block.

d.      Choose continuous line for foreground lines and dashed line for obscured lines. So that we can distinguish whichever visible lines (foreground line) and hidden line (obscured lines).

e.       Then click Create button. It will appear as below.

f.       On command line it also will come up :

Specify insertion point or [ Basepoint Scale X Y Z Rotate ] :

Type B and specify basepoint. Assume we choose center point of the circle as basepoint (point number 1 as following picture).

g.       After that on command line, it becomes :

Specify insertion point :

Assume the insertion point is on the point of number 2 (it also on the center point of circle solid)

h.      Then the instruction on command line is :

Enter X scale factor <1> :

Just press Enter, as we choose the scale factor is 1 as default.

i.       Enter Y scale factor <1> :

Just also press Enter.

j.      Specify rotation angle <0> :

Just press Enter.

k.      Finally we get 2D Drawing of Top View on XY plane.

l.    With the same step,let you create 2D drawing of Front View and Right Side View.

m.  On SW Isometric View (ribbon Visualize – Views menu and SW Isometric icon) it will appear this following.

n.    If we hide the layer of 3D object, it will appear this following.

o.       We have to separate it to become as below.

p.   Arrange the composition with multiple operation like Rotate3D, Move, etc. so that it becomes as below.

q.       On Top View :

r.   Notice that each of views are blocks. So that we can edit individually as block editing, such as change line type scale of dashed line.  Finally after block editing we can get 2D projection as below.

s.  We can add center line, dimensions, and text to complete this 2D drawing. So that finally we result 2D projection drawing as follow inally after block editing we can get 2D projection as below.

It is very easy, right? May be useful !!
