Course content
The course provides students with a basic overview and potential uses of software for CAD systems (with focus on ProgeCAD, resp. AutoCAD), Onshape and generally drawing programs for vector graphics. Learning skills can benefit students in developing technical documentation and presentation graphics. Topics overview: Graphical communication, the importance of information, technical documentation in electrical engineering, traditional versus modern computerized form of documentation, computer support in engineering, hardware and software for CAD, CAD systems, vector and raster graphics, the ProgeCAD and the Onshape presentation, using commands, basic properties, and desktop settings. Drawing 2D and 3D objects. Possibility of working with objects, snapping objects. Objects editing a modifying, change properties of objects, layers. Dimensioning. Planes. 3D views. Drawing and model space. User coordinate systems, 3D operations. Rendering.
