AutoCAD Pretest Questions 1-20

When trimming, you are indeed selecting the portion of the objects that you want to remove or delete, not the portion that you want to keep. Trimming is a process used to remove unwanted or unnecessary parts of an object, such as extra lines or shapes. By selecting the portion to trim, you are indicating which parts should be deleted, leaving behind the desired portion. Therefore, the statement is true.

When trimming an object, you are selecting the portion of the object that you want to remove or delete, not the portion that you want to keep. Trimming involves removing unwanted or excess parts of an object, so the correct answer is true.

When you modify a dimension style in a drawing, all dimensions that are using that style will automatically update. This means that any changes you make to the dimension style, such as text height or arrow size, will be reflected in all dimensions throughout the drawing that are using that style. This can save a lot of time and effort, as you don't have to manually update each individual dimension. Therefore, the statement is true.

In this question, the statement is asking if it is possible to add layouts to a current drawing based on a layout in a template file. The correct answer is True, meaning that it is indeed possible to add layouts to a drawing by using a layout from a template file. This allows users to easily incorporate predefined layouts and settings into their current drawing, saving time and effort in creating layouts from scratch.

When trimming, you are selecting the part of the objects that you want to remove or cut off, not the part that you want to keep. Trimming is a process where you remove unwanted or excess parts of an object, such as removing the edges of a piece of fabric or cutting off the ends of a tree branch. Therefore, the statement that "while trimming, you select the portion of the objects to trim, not the portion to keep" is true.

When Noun-verb selection is enabled in the software, it allows the user to select the objects they want to move before initiating the move command. This means that the user can choose the specific objects they want to move and then proceed with the move command, making the statement "True" accurate.

When changes are made to a text style, they will be applied to all text objects that use that particular style. This means that any modifications or adjustments made to the style will automatically be reflected in all instances where the style is applied. Therefore, the statement "changes made to a text style affect all text objects that use the style" is true.

The ID point command is a feature in a drawing software that allows users to select a point and obtain its coordinates. The command takes into account the current units of the drawing, ensuring that the returned coordinates are in the same units as the rest of the drawing. Therefore, the statement that the ID point command returns the coordinate of the selected point using the current units of the drawing is true.

The statement is false because when using the MATCHPROP command, you can only select one source object at a time. This command allows you to match the properties of one object to another object, but it does not support selecting multiple source objects simultaneously.

When stretching objects in a CAD software, it is necessary to define the stretch windows using a crossing window or crossing polygon. This means that you need to select the objects that you want to stretch by drawing a window or polygon shape that crosses over the objects. This allows the software to identify the specific objects that should be stretched. Therefore, the statement "When you stretch objects, you must define the stretch windows using a crossing window or crossing polygon" is true.

Objects created on layer 0 can be moved to a different layer. This means that the statement "If you create objects on layer 0, they cannot be moved to a different layer" is false.

The statement is false because when you use the join command to join lines, the line segments can overlap. This means that two or more line segments can be connected together even if they intersect or overlap each other. The join command allows for the creation of complex shapes and designs by connecting multiple lines, even if they cross paths.

Exploding multiline text refers to converting a text that spans multiple lines into a single line of text. This can be done using various methods or functions in programming or text editing. Therefore, the statement "if you explode multiline text, it becomes single line text" is true.

The given answer is "False" because the statement mentioned in the question is not true. It is stating that you can edit multiline text and it becomes single line text, which is incorrect. Editing multiline text does not automatically convert it into single line text.

The statement is false because when using the MATCHPROP command, you can only match properties from objects within the same drawing. It is not possible to match properties between objects in different drawings that are opened.

The statement is false because to remove the jog symbol from a jogged linear dimension, you need to use the erase command and then the break command, not the join command. The join command is used to connect two separate objects, not to remove a jog symbol.

The statement is false because when multiple object snaps are enabled, only one object snap can be selected at a given location. Pressing the CTRL key does not cycle through the possibilities, but it temporarily disables object snaps to allow for free cursor movement.

The statement is false because when you use the join command to join lines, the line segments can overlap. The join command in this context refers to connecting two or more line segments to create a continuous line. Overlapping line segments can be joined together to form a single line. Therefore, the statement that the line segments cannot overlap is incorrect.

The statement is false because you cannot freeze a layer in the current viewport when the layout viewport is active. Freezing a layer only affects the current viewport, not the layout viewport.

Mtext is a command in AutoCAD that allows you to create multiline text objects. However, it does not have the capability to create numbered or bulleted lists. Therefore, the statement "you can create numbered and bulleted lists with Mtext" is false.
