WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:08.000 Let's begin the process of creating a one by one standard size detail border. 00:08.000 --> 00:17.000 So I'm going to go File New, I can either go File New up there, or I can wait for this to collapse, 00:17.000 --> 00:27.000 I can go to the Start menu, and I can create a new drawing using the template and choose VDCi01 is my drawing template file, 00:27.000 --> 00:42.000 and then I can save my file, I'm in my CAD folder, and I'm going to go down and choose my VDCiDTuborder1horizonal1vertical.dwg, and overwrite the file. 00:42.000 --> 00:51.000 I'm going to go back to my 30 by 42 drawing, I'm going to say Edit, Copy with Base Point, I'm going to choose a base point of right here, 00:51.000 --> 01:03.000 and put a window around the one cell, come into here, and go Ctrl V, and pop it in at 00, zoom extents. 01:03.000 --> 01:12.000 Go into my 22 by 34, do the same thing, Edit, Copy with Base Point, here's a base point, put a window around it, 01:12.000 --> 01:24.000 go to the one horizontal one vertical, pop it in at 00, and you can see that here is the size of my detailed border for a 30 by 42, 01:24.000 --> 01:37.000 here's the same one by one for a 22 by 34, and the distance in the sizes is right around 9.16 of an inch in the X direction, and 149.256 in the Y position. 01:37.000 --> 01:46.000 So what I'm going to do is I'm going to move the smaller detail so that it's at the centroid of the other detail. 01:46.000 --> 01:55.000 I'm going to go to Home tab, I'm going to draw a line from the end to the end, and a line from the end to the end. 01:55.000 --> 02:04.000 I'm going to move these from the mid of the angled line to the mid of this angled line. 02:05.000 --> 02:11.000 I can erase this, and I can save the file, zoom extents, zoom real time. 02:11.000 --> 02:21.000 So here's what's going to happen, we're going to keep everything we draw, everything we draw, we're going to keep it within this interior rectangle, 02:21.000 --> 02:30.000 but when we go to pop the detail into the sheets, we'll either position them using that outer corner or this inner corner. 02:30.000 --> 02:40.000 So there's one philosophy in when you're assembling details, how do you insert them or x-ref them in? 02:40.000 --> 02:48.000 Typically we build detail sheets from this corner down, and then over to the left. 02:48.000 --> 02:54.000 So typically you don't really have anything over here to grab onto. 02:54.000 --> 03:02.000 So people will frequently have the base point of their detail borders being the top right corner. 03:02.000 --> 03:09.000 Because when I first start populating it, I'll say pop it in at the end of that corner right there. 03:09.000 --> 03:14.000 So what we're going to do is we're going to move the geometry in the one horizontal, one vertical. 03:14.000 --> 03:20.000 The base point will still be 00, but 00 will be this top right corner. 03:20.000 --> 03:30.000 So I'm just going to say move crossing from the end of here to 00, zoom extents, zoom real time, and save the file. 03:30.000 --> 03:37.000 Now, from a layer standpoint, the layers that we already have in the drawing are zero and no plot. 03:37.000 --> 03:44.000 What I want to do is I want to bring in the detailed or title block layer color into the drawing. 03:44.000 --> 03:51.000 Go to the View tab under palettes, click on the design center or type DC at the command prompt. 03:51.000 --> 03:56.000 Go to the C drive, and go to the CAD detailing folder. 03:57.000 --> 04:00.000 And you can see all of the drawings that I have in here. 04:00.000 --> 04:03.000 If I'd like to, I can stretch this out a little bit farther. 04:03.000 --> 04:10.000 Now, again, if your design center does not look like mine, you can always choose the visibility modes. 04:10.000 --> 04:12.000 Right here, I keep mine on details. 04:12.000 --> 04:14.000 You can see that there are the icons. 04:14.000 --> 04:17.000 I don't care to work that way. I keep mine on details. 04:17.000 --> 04:21.000 So I'm going to slide down and choose my title block. 04:22.000 --> 04:24.000 TTLB 30x42. 04:24.000 --> 04:27.000 I will expand it. I'll go to Layers. 04:27.000 --> 04:31.000 I'll take the title block layer and drag it into the drawing. 04:31.000 --> 04:35.000 And I'm going to go on and close the design center. 04:35.000 --> 04:38.000 So I've brought the layer into here. 04:38.000 --> 04:45.000 So then one of the questions starts to be, how do you deal with your borders? 04:45.000 --> 04:52.000 And so what a lot of people do is rather than having the detailed borders in the details themselves, 04:52.000 --> 04:59.000 they end up having the border tick marks in the 30x42 or 22x34 sheet. 04:59.000 --> 05:04.000 So what would normally happen is, for example, I would draw a line. 05:04.000 --> 05:06.000 Well, first I would check my layers. 05:06.000 --> 05:09.000 I would make sure that I'm on the title block layer. 05:09.000 --> 05:12.000 And again, remember, we drew all of these on the no plot layer. 05:12.000 --> 05:18.000 If you happened to have drawn yours, for example, on the zero layer, 05:18.000 --> 05:23.000 and you know how to do this, you can always select the geometry with a crossing 05:23.000 --> 05:26.000 and migrate it to the no plot layer. 05:26.000 --> 05:32.000 I'm going to hit Escape, go to Title Block, 05:32.000 --> 05:36.000 and now I'm going to go and make Title Block my current layer. 05:36.000 --> 05:41.000 I'll draw a line from here down an eighth of an inch. 05:41.000 --> 05:45.000 Copy last. 05:45.000 --> 05:49.000 Copy this from the end. 05:49.000 --> 05:54.000 Mirror window. 05:54.000 --> 05:57.000 From the mid of the vertical, straight over. 05:57.000 --> 06:02.000 Draw a line from the end of here over an eighth of an inch. 06:02.000 --> 06:05.000 Copy last. 06:05.000 --> 06:07.000 Down. 06:07.000 --> 06:10.000 Mirror window. 06:10.000 --> 06:13.000 From the mid. 06:13.000 --> 06:17.000 And you can see that what it wants to do is it wants to grab the midpoint 06:17.000 --> 06:20.000 of my actual detail border. 06:20.000 --> 06:24.000 So I'm going to make sure I have selection cycling turned on. 06:24.000 --> 06:28.000 So mirror window. 06:28.000 --> 06:32.000 From the mid and selection cycling should kick in. 06:32.000 --> 06:34.000 It's apparently not. 06:34.000 --> 06:39.000 So what I'm going to do instead, I'm going to draw a line nearest to here, 06:39.000 --> 06:43.000 perpendicular to right there. 06:43.000 --> 06:50.000 Then I'm going to say mirror window from the mid of that angle line. 06:50.000 --> 06:53.000 Straight down, erase out the line. 06:53.000 --> 07:00.000 I'm going to erase out the detail border so you can now see that I have little tick marks 07:00.000 --> 07:04.000 that I can use when I stop populating my details in the sheet. 07:04.000 --> 07:09.000 I'm going to save this file. 07:09.000 --> 07:11.000 Go back to the 22 by 34. 07:11.000 --> 07:14.000 Draw a line from the end down. 07:14.000 --> 07:16.000 Oops, change my layer. 07:16.000 --> 07:18.000 Go to Title Block. 07:18.000 --> 07:22.000 Draw a line down an eighth of an inch. 07:22.000 --> 07:29.000 Copy last mirror window. 07:29.000 --> 07:33.000 From the mid, I'm going to choose this line over here because it's the same thing. 07:33.000 --> 07:36.000 Or those on straight over. 07:36.000 --> 07:41.000 A line from the end of here over a quarter of an inch. 07:41.000 --> 07:48.000 Copy last. 07:48.000 --> 08:00.000 A line nearest to here, perpendicular to here, mirror window from the mid of here. 08:00.000 --> 08:05.000 Straight down, erase this, erase this. 08:05.000 --> 08:07.000 I'm just going to confirm some dimensions. 08:07.000 --> 08:10.000 I'm going to say what's the distance from the end to the end. 08:10.000 --> 08:12.000 An eighth of an inch. 08:12.000 --> 08:15.000 What's the distance here? 08:15.000 --> 08:16.000 An eighth of an inch. 08:16.000 --> 08:20.000 I might have set a quarter of an inch, but I actually typed in an eighth of an inch. 08:20.000 --> 08:26.000 Again, I have my tick marks so that when I go to insert the detail border, 08:26.000 --> 08:31.000 I'll be popping it in to that point up there. 08:31.000 --> 08:34.000 I'm going to go back to my one by one vertical. 08:34.000 --> 08:38.000 Now we've begun the actual formatting for the detail border. 08:38.000 --> 08:41.000 I'm going to save this. 08:41.000 --> 08:43.000 I'm going to go into my 30 by 42. 08:43.000 --> 08:46.000 Just for fun. 08:46.000 --> 08:49.000 I'm going to make my current layer zero. 08:49.000 --> 08:51.000 Xref. 08:51.000 --> 08:55.000 I'm going to attach. 08:55.000 --> 08:57.000 Attach a drawing. 08:57.000 --> 09:00.000 I'm going to go into my C drive. 09:00.000 --> 09:02.000 Choose my detail border. 09:02.000 --> 09:03.000 Go open. 09:03.000 --> 09:05.000 Specify insertion point on screen. 09:05.000 --> 09:07.000 As an attachment, go OK. 09:07.000 --> 09:10.000 I'm just going to pop it in right here for right now. 09:10.000 --> 09:15.000 Because one thing that's happening is my Xref view mode is not set to auto hide, 09:15.000 --> 09:18.000 so I'm going to turn that to be back to auto hide. 09:18.000 --> 09:21.000 Now when I click on the screen, it will collapse. 09:21.000 --> 09:27.000 Now I can move the detail from the end of here up to the end here, 09:27.000 --> 09:32.000 and you can see that it's right on top of that little tick mark. 09:32.000 --> 09:36.000 Go into XR. 09:36.000 --> 09:37.000 Pick on it. 09:37.000 --> 09:38.000 Right button. 09:38.000 --> 09:41.000 Detach. 09:41.000 --> 09:43.000 Come into here. 09:43.000 --> 09:45.000 Control S to save. 09:45.000 --> 09:47.000 And zoom extends. 09:47.000 --> 09:51.000 So now I have my title block done with my tick marks. 09:51.000 --> 09:53.000 I'm saving the file. 09:53.000 --> 09:58.000 22 by 34 with the tick marks saving the file. 09:58.000 --> 10:00.000 My one horizontal one vertical. 10:00.000 --> 10:01.000 Save the file. 10:01.000 --> 10:06.000 And when we come back, we're going to start working on actually building out 10:06.000 --> 10:09.000 a one by one horizontal vertical. 10:09.000 --> 10:11.000 See you in a few minutes.
