1. Title bar→ It shows the application name and drawing name
Application Menu → It shows the new, open, save, save as ,print options and here we
can see the recent document list
Quick Access Tool Bar→ It shows the icons of new, open, save, undo, redo, plot.
Workspace Tool Bar→ Here you can select what kind of view or what kind of
workspace we want we can select it.

Info Center→ Help with the use of internet. Here you can enter keywords to search
Information.
2. Menu bar→ it holds the function that you have been required
3. Standard tool bar → it contains function which are already available in menus
4. Cross hair → it acts like a pencil
5. Scroll bar→ used to move & down (or) left & right in the drawing area
6. Document Window or Drawing Area → Main Area in Black or White color
7. UCS icon →User Co-ordinate System. It shows the direction of X and Y axis

9. Command window-> Used to type the command
Functional keys:
F1- help explanation of commands
1) Command: UCSICON
: No origin
2) Command: Units-UN
3) Command: Limits
Lower Limit: 0, 0
Upper Limit: 210,297
4) Command: Zoom-Z

Origin
No origin
Units:
Command: un
Menu →format →units
It is used to change the units feet, millimeters and kilometers
Unit Conversion:
1 feet = 12 inch
1 feet = 30 cm =300mm
1cm= 10 mm
100cm= 1000mm=1m
Note:
If in the drawing they are using meter as a unit means it will having point value like
0.3, 2.5
Feet and inches means (‘ “) this symbol will be used
Mm means the value will be high. In Mechanical field mostly they will use only mm.
In every diagram we can see that “All Dimensions are in mm”
