Exercise 1: Reviewing Grading Settings

In this exercise, you will learn how to use grading settings.

Review grading settings

  1. Open Grading-1.dwg, which is located in the tutorials drawings folder.
  2. In Toolspace, on the Settings tab, right-click GradingEdit Feature Settings.
  3. In the Edit Feature Settings dialog box, expand the General collection.
  4. In the Save Command Changes To Settings property, verify that the value is set to Yes.

    This setting saves command settings for reuse. For example, if you create a grading and set the grade to 5%, then 5% is the default value the next time you create a grading.

  5. Expand the collections for Grade, Slope, and Grade/Slope.

    Notice the options for unit format and precision. The integer value for precision specifies the number of digits to the right of the decimal place.

  6. Click OK.
