1. Setting, Line, Copy/Motility, Offset and
2. Rectangle, Mirror, Arc, Trim.

If you're a beginner to LibreCAD, feel free to visit these link above. In this role 3 of the serie, we volition learn how to add hatch, text/font, and dimension info to our project. Open the terminal saved file that we work on last tutorial. As you lot tin can see I added more than expanse/room like office, stairs, bathroom and door & window element. I won't evidence you how I depict it anymore, because information technology'due south merely basic tool that I already explicate on the link to a higher place.

Hatch:

Hatch is unremarkably symbolize of an element. Most of CAD based program have hatch for concrete, grass, brick, clay, stone, etc. There's ane limitation to apply hatch in LibreCAD. You can't utilize hatch by option a bespeak choice. It's only by select an object. Then if you desire to utilize to cavalcade element it'south quicker if it's a rectangle than lines object. Select cavalcade object and click hatch icon. Hatch window pick volition appear, I choose solid hatch this time.

Also make certain the typhoon tool is deactivated. If it'due south active the hatch won't exist visible. Copy and place all the hatch if its necessary.

Annotation: You need to describe single rectangle for cavalcade in perpendicular position.

Text:

To apply a text on LibreCAD is tranquillity simple. Click on MText icon and its window dialog will open. Blazon your text and change your font, size, angle, alignment, etc if you want. I suggest you lot to keep the text font to standard so it can read on your drawing surface area. Click on the area where you lot want to place the text.

Dimension:

Before y'all add together dimension info on your floor program, y'all demand to setup its setting beginning. See the picture below for all the pick (open Current Cartoon Application). In one case you happy with your setting click OK.

Now, click Measure icon, choose the direction of your dimension text. Pick a signal and click another point to go the dimension info of line. Of form you need to adjust with your drawing shape. Repeat the process until you lot get all the dimension info that yous need.
