Article Summary

Knowing the right AutoCAD commands can dramatically speed up your workflow. This article covers eight essential commands — OVERKILL, CHSPACE, BURST, RENAME, FIND, PURGE, AUDIT, and RECOVER. You'll gain practical knowledge to manage files, fix errors, and work more efficiently in AutoCAD.

AutoCAD has been the most widely used CAD package for years, and its market dominance continues despite many available industry-specific packages. At some point, anyone working in a design role within the engineering or architecture sectors will have had to use this software and should have made steps to learn AutoCAD basics.

AutoCAD is a very complex piece of software, but users don’t have to know how to use every command. Though some AutoCAD experts have extensive command line knowledge, there are many more AutoCAD users who just know enough to get their work done. It is possible to learn only the tools you need to carry out a specific task and not go any further. This means that there is a multitude of commands that you may never use, but it’s also possible that you are missing out on some helpful commands that could speed up your workflow or make your life easier.
