1
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Right.

2
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
So let's look at adding these windows now.

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
We'll have a quick look at our survey.

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,000
So all the windows are the same size.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000
They are all two meters long.

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Okay.

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,000
And how is this shown?

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,000
Again, this is kind of a standard.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,000
You can add more detail if you had more detail in this case.

10
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
We just want to show a window.

11
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:36,000
So it's going to be a rectangle and then we'll have just these three narrow lines in the middle, kind

12
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,000
of representing a pane of glass.

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:44,000
The main thing is the width is two meters and it's the kind of thickness of the wall.

14
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:51,000
So we can easily do that with a block and we'll create the first one in the correct place, which is

15
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,000
900 off this corner.

16
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,000
So I'm going to first thing I'm going to do is draw a rectangle.

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,000
I'm just going to draw it out here just to make it easier for us.

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,000
And I'm going to do this.

19
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
2000 tab.

20
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,000
300.

21
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000
300 was the thickness of our wall.

22
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,000
Okay.

23
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:22,000
I can then move this right click, select that as a base point and put it in that corner.

24
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
And then I'm going to go and move again.

25
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000
Select that object right click with Alpha one.

26
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,000
So it only moves, which is F eight.

27
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,000
Remember, we don't want it moving down here.

28
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:37,000
We can have Alpha one, we can just drag it somewhere out in this direction and type in 900.

29
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,000
And now that is in the correct place.

30
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,000
I just want to add that extra bit of detail, which was just a line from the middle.

31
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,000
Okay.

32
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,000
And then for the next one, I'm just going to offset it and let's offset it.

33
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,000
50.

34
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,000
I think we'll look okay, 50 either side.

35
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,000
And there we go.

36
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
And that is our window.

37
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Now we're not worrying about colors and things yet.

38
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,000
We'll do that later on.

39
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,000
The main thing is we wanted this block.

40
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Okay.

41
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:21,000
So again, we'll go insert and we will say create block And what are we going to call this?

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Well, probably guessed Window Pink Point.

43
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000
We'll use I think we'll use that as our base point.

44
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Either of these corners would do.

45
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,000
We're going to go with that one.

46
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Select objects.

47
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,000
I can just window select all those and right click and click.

48
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Okay.

49
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
And now we've got a window block.

50
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,000
So let's look at setting these out.

51
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000
The next one is going to be 3600.

52
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Okay, So there's a few ways you could set these out.

53
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Probably the easiest one is to do some construction lines.

54
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:12,000
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to draw a line from there and I'm going to just extend it out again.

55
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Don't worry about the length of it.

56
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,000
It is just construction lines are temporary lines just to help you lay things out.

57
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Okay.

58
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,000
And I'm going to do so.

59
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,000
I'm going to offset sorry.

60
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000
I'm going to move that one.

61
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,000
So I'm going to create a construction line just off this end here.

62
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,000
Now, construction lines are temporary lines just to help you set things out.

63
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,000
So don't worry about the length of it, just a random line up in that direction.

64
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,000
And then if we check this distance, the next one is 3600 away.

65
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,000
So I'm going to offset 3600.

66
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,000
Okay.

67
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,000
And I'm going to offset that side.

68
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Now you can copy this block right click, use that as a base point and put it there.

69
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,000
And there you go.

70
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
You've placed your window.

71
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000
You could you could do that again further down.

72
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,000
The next one is 4100.

73
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Another way you could do that.

74
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Is you could copy it and type in the dimension.

75
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,000
But bear in mind, when you copy in, you need to remember.

76
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:29,000
Two.

77
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000
So let's say we were going to copy this and we were going to use this as a base point.

78
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000
We can't just type in 4100 because if we're using this as a base point, it will drop that base point

79
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000
there and our window will be in this position.

80
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,000
So if we use this as a base point, we would have to copy it.

81
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,000
4100 plus 2000.

82
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000
So it ended there.

83
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Okay.

84
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:57,000
So it would be 6100 and I'll demonstrate that now.

85
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,000
So we could say copy, select that object right click.

86
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:09,000
Use this as our base point, move our cursor in this direction and type in 6100 and and that would give

87
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,000
us.

88
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000
If we measure that, that will give us our four files.

89
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
100.

90
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Hopefully that made sense.

91
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,000
Rewatch that.

92
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:24,000
But if it didn't sometimes, to be honest, just drawing lines and offsetting them and deleting them

93
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,000
can be the easiest way.

94
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000
There's no right or wrong with Cod.

95
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,000
There's lots of different ways to achieve the same result.

96
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:37,000
So it's entirely up to you whether you do a copy or you just offset.

97
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:44,000
The gap like that and use that geometry.

98
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,000
Use those construction lines and then get rid of them.

99
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,000
I do that a lot.

100
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Sometimes when you're offering a world of your own, creating lots of things, you don't want to be

101
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,000
doing calculations and bringing in errors.

102
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,000
You just want to be listening to your music and drawing away that kind of thing.

103
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,000
So I do do that, use the lines and then delete them.

104
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,000
And we can see down here our windows, the dimensions between our windows.

105
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Most buildings are created symmetrical, otherwise they're just don't look right.

106
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,000
So our windows are spaced exactly the same distances.

107
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,000
So this block we can just mirror.

108
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Okay, So we can select all four blocks.

109
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Go to mirror.

110
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,000
We've got the snaps on.

111
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000
We can go to a midpoint.

112
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Just create that mirror point there and then right click and we've got our windows in.

113
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:37,000
And that's it.

114
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,000
So now we've added all our windows.

115
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000
And they are all set as blocks.

116
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Simple.

117
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,000
So already we're really getting there now.

118
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,000
This door looks a bit strange.

119
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:59,000
I wouldn't like to be walking out of this office if someone came in the main entrance, but.

120
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,000
That's the way our survey is.

121
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,000
We're just going to leave it.

122
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:02,000
Okay.

123
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000
I won't worry about it.

124
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000
It is just an example.

125
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,000
If it was actually designing a building, I would I would probably change that in this case, Let's

126
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,000
not worry.

127
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,000
So we have our building, We can get in, we can get in each room and we can see out the window.

128
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:26,000
And remember, at the end of each of these click save because AutoCAD can crash.

129
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,000
It's not immune to crashing.

130
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,000
So save your work and I'll see you in the next chapter.
