Make the dividing point quickly in AutoCAD

To make the line to do n points, perhaps the novice CAD friends will immediately think of the use of a number of parallel lines in the middle school textbooks to do auxiliary line segments, in fact, do not bother, AutoCAD itself has a line to do the division points of the order "DIVIDE."

First draw a segment, enter "DIVIDE" at the command line, carriage return Confirmation command, command line prompt as follows:

Select the object to divide: (the mouse selects the segment to be divided)

Enter number of segments or [Block (B)]: 3 (number of segment segments to be divided by keyboard input)

Carriage return Confirmation command to view the dividing points on the line segment have been completed.

But this method also has its little flaw, that is many use will leave a lot of useless points or auxiliary segments, want to get clean drawings to find and delete it. In fact, in some cases, you can use the CAL command to complete it, you can avoid the later cumbersome to the auxiliary line or the removal of the auxiliary point of work.

This is an ordinary triangle, to find the centerline intersection of the triangle (particle), the ruler mapping method is to find the triangle of the two sides of the midpoint to get the intersection point, but with the calculation of the CAD function, we can completely avoid the auxiliary line and auxiliary points to find easily get the triangular particle:

At the command line, enter the dot command "point", enter "Cal" (Do not forget single quotes) after the command line prompts "Specify point", the expression type "(End+end+end)/3", and confirm that, in turn, the vertex of the triangle is selected to complete the command with the mouse click to capture the end (endpoint). So we get the particle of the triangle without doing the auxiliary line.
