I'm new to autocad. I have watched tutorials where when as they are drawing a line, little boxes pop up that show the length and angle of the line.
Also, I have seen where they have a little box in the drawing area that shows the orientation of things..
How do I turn these on.
I'm using autocad 2010
***EDIT*** I got them turned on, but please still tell me how. I'm not sure how I did it.
Also, when drawing, say a series of boxes. Is there any way I can lock the z plane, so the bottom of all of the boxes are at the same level?
