Autocad commandline 1

[SeanSweeney]

What is the difference between the following on the command line:

zoom
_zoom
'_zoom

I have a friend who is learning Autocad from a book and she is curious as to what these notations mean (and why they produce the same result).


Cheers. Sean.

Hi Sean,

zoom is the command in the language of your acad-version.
_zoom is the englisch command.
Example: _line = linie (German)

'zoom is the transparent command. You can use it during an another command.
Example: _circle -> 'zoom -> ...etc
try it without the apostroph _circle -> _zoom
