The number of grips dissplayed for reevision cloudss has beensignificanttly reduced. TheT location anda behavior of grips is baased on the shhape of the reevision cloud. Forexample, if the revisionn cloud was generatedgby selecting a ciircle, it will innclude a centeer grip and foourquadrant grips enablinng you to edit it like a circlee. If it was ge nerated by picking polygoonal points, it willinclude veertex and middpoint grips.

DimenssioningDIM commmand enhaancementsThe DIM commandcis significantlysenhancedein AutoCADA20166 and is now accessible froom the Annottateribbon tabb. Next to it you’llyfind a new dimensionn layer controol. Dimensionns created using the DIMcommandd are automattically placed on the speciffied layer. If aan appropriatte dimension layer doesn’tcurrently exist in the drawing, you canc quickly crreate one andd apply it to the DIM commmand using thhem variable.new DIMLLAYER systemOptions withinwthe DIMM command area now displayed at the ccommand linee and in the right-click mennu,eliminatinng the need foor you to remmember whichh options are available andd how to enteer them.However, even the neeed to specify Dimension options is sign ificantly reduuced in AutoCCAD 2016. Now theDIM commmand automaatically createes appropriatte dimensionss based on thhe type of objects you select. Apreview asa you pass thhe cursor over those objects enables yoou to see the resulting dimmension beforre youactually create it. For exampleeif you launch the DIM commannd and hoverr the cursor ovver a linear oobject,a previeww of the approopriate horizoontal, vertical, or aligned ddimension is ddisplayed. Aftter selecting ttheobject youu can either placepthe dimension or hovver the cursoor over anotheer non-parallel linear objeect todisplay annd place an anngular dimension.8

ArcA objects innclude the additional optioon to create aan angular dimmension.The DIM commandcfurrther simplifiees creating dimensions by eliminating pprompts to mmodify thedimensionn text and angle. Instead, thet default vaalues are autoomatically appplied. Mtext,, Text, and TeextAngle opttions are available from the command line and right -click menus if you choosee to change thhedefault vaalues.If you atteempt to creatte a dimensioon that overlaaps with othe r similar dimeensions, a currsor menu offfersoptions too automatically move, break up, or replace the existting dimensioon in addition to simply plaacingthe new dimensiondon top of the exxisting ones withoutwaffectting them.When using the Baseline or Continuue options, yoou are autommatically prommpted to selecct the firstn line origin.extensionRegardlesss of which tyype of dimenssion you creatte, the DIM coommand remmains active, eenabling you toeasily placce additional dimensions untiluyou exit the commannd.9
ap in DimensionsText wraWhen editing dimensioon text, a widdth sizing control is displayyed above thee text, enablinng you to speecifythe width for text wrappping. This was the #8 AUGGI wishlist reqquest.TextTo addresss the AUGI #5 wishlist reqquest, a new TextT frame prroperty has bbeen added too Mtext objeccts,enabling youy to create a border aroound the text.The Match text formattting button in AutoCAD 20016 is “stickyy,” so you can apply the properties of thhet multiple times within an Mtext object. It's availaable for all obbjects that usse Mtext incluudingselected textmleaders,, tables, and dimensions.d10
Geomettric Centerr object snnapThe #2 AUUGI wishlist reequest has beeen granted withw the addittion of a neww Geometric CCenter objectsnap. Usinng the Geomeetric Center objectosnap yoou can snap tto the geometric center off polygons andclosed polylines. It is accessible by enteringeGCE at the commmand line as wwell as from tyypical osnapcontrols, including the Drafting Setttings dialog box, Status ba r, and contexxtual menus.Tooltips distinguishdthee Geometric CenterCosnapp from the traaditional Centter osnap.A new objject tracking glyph distinguuishes the Ceenter object s nap from othher object snaaps that displaythe traditional “ ” glypph.11

A new systemm variable, XREFOVERRIDE,enables you to control the display ofo the xref layyers: set XREFFOVERRIDE 11, and the xref objects willbehave ass if their propperties were sets to “ByLayeer.”13

Xreflayers aree still displayeed in the Ribbon layers list but are now shown in graay text.PDF enhancemenntsPDF suppoort has been significantly enhancedein AutoCADA20116, offering immproved perfformance,flexibility,, and quality. Zooming andd panning a drawing with PPDF underlayys, even large ones, isconsideraably faster in AutoCADA20116.Truetype fontsfin Mtexxt and Text witth any formattting options, as well as Poolygonized texxt (TTF font plottedas Geomeetry), SHX textt, and Unicodee characters, are now searrchable in PDFF output files.

DesignnSectionn objectSection obbjects, createed using the SectionSPlane tool, providee more flexibiility in AutoCAAD 2016. TheeSection Pllane tool creaates a sectionn object that actsa as a cuttiing plane throough 3D objeects, includinggsolids, surrfaces, meshees, regions, annd now pointt clouds.The sectioon object’s tyype can be sett to representt a simple cuttting plane, a bounded areea, or volumeetricarea. In AutoCAD 20166, a new Slice type has beeen added to thhe section obbject.The Slice typetgeneratees a thin cut throughtthe modelmthat alwways containns parallel front and backsection planes. The Slicce type has a slice thickness property a nd cannot coontain jogs. WWhen switchinng tope, any jogs inn the section object are removed.a slice typSome gripps have been offset or repoositioned to makemthem e asier to selecct and now opperate moreconsistently regardlesss of the view or whether polarptracking is toggled onn or off.
