Features: This book primarily introduces the basic theories, technical methods, application skills, and development approaches of using AutoCAD 2000 for 3D design. It concisely explains all commands and tools of AutoCAD 2000 for 3D design and elaborates on commonly used methods and techniques in practical applications and secondary development in a clear and accessible manner. The book is divided into two parts: the Design Section and the Development Section. The Design Section mainly includes fundamental knowledge of 3D design (basic theories of 3D design, coordinate system transformations and view transformations in AutoCAD), 3D modeling (wireframe, surface, and solid models), 3D editing and modification, shading and rendering, and the output of engineering drawings. The Development Section mainly covers modeling and organization for complex engineering projects, as well as solid modeling techniques using VBA, VisualLISP, and ObjectARX. It covers all technical methods of AutoCAD in 3D design and development.
