Are there any AutoCAD courses offered where you are? You could learn the basics on your own via books and online tutorials found as such websites as CADTutor and MYCADSITE. Tutorials are also available at the AutoDESK and AUGI website as well. In the meantime if you have any questions then just ask. We'll try to help you out the best we can. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

A link to the CADTutor website. They have both static and video tutorials. http://www.cadtutor.net/ It's also one of the best AutoCAD related Help forums out there. A link to MYCADSITE where you'll find tutorials specific to various releases of AutoCAD. http://we-r-here.com/cad/ Three videos about getting started in AutoCAD 2014 can be found at the AutoDesk website. Here is a link... http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_6ApchKwjN9uiv3xkm5zuuojmH100zWJ AUGI is the AutoCAD Users Group International. You can find its website here... http://www.augi.com/ You might also consider buying an after-market book about AutoCAD. Many of these books come with exercises to do and are supplemented by a DVD with actual drawing examples or online resources where content (examples) can be downloaded. Noted authors include Omura, Finkelstein, Grabowski, and McFarland to name but a few. And don't forget there is AutoCAD's own HELP file that you can refer to for explanations about how commands work. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor.

You will only "disturb" me if you physically come to my house in the middle of the night and ask me an AutoCAD related question. I doubt you'll do that. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

Translating programs can be very entertaining

Anybody have anything useful to add to the conversation? The last two posts didn't. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

I have found the AutoCAD training Videos from Infinite Skills to be very helpful. You can watch, repeat and pause at will. They have basic and Advanced skills lessons starting from AutoCAD 2010 to Advanced AutoCAD 2014.. I have no commercial interest in selling these lessons, I just use them myself. Look for the lessons that use the Instructor Brian Benton. I like him the best. He speaks in a clear voice and adds extra information about WHY you would use a command, not just how to use the command like most books do. Also, at this web site, they have a good selection of full free lessons that you can watch BEFORE you decide to buy a course. For example, in the Learning Autodesk AutoCAD 2014 Training Video Course, there are 15 free full chapter videos from the actual course that you can watch first... Take a look at the AutoCAD section. http://www.infiniteskills.com/autocad/ They have many other courses in other software too.... Good luck!

That's good to hear.. I've been using AutoCAD every day since 1985 (28 years) and I still found those video lessons helpful for even me. ------------- A "Conclusion" is the point where you got tired of thinking.. |

| Hello again jclong, I must be a beginner too because I'm using AutoCAD only since 1995 ( AutoCAD R13 ). |
