Changing point sizeīy default, the point size will be relative to the size of the screen and zoom command will not change the size of the point. You can see a list of all the PDMODE point types and their associated value on this AKN page. In this case changing the value to 1 will hide the point from drawing area. You can change this to any value from 0 to 4 to change the point type as shown in the image below. The default value of PDMODE is 0 which makes a pixel sized point. You can also use PDMODE command to change the point type directly from the command line. If for any reason you want to hide points from the drawing area or if you don’t want to plot the points then you can simply select the second point in the Point Style window which is represented by a blank box as shown in the image below.Īlternatively, you can also put the points on a no plot layer or you can use hide or isolate tools of AutoCAD. If you have already made points with a different point style and then you change the point style at a later stage then all those point styles on the drawing area will also change to the new point style. You can select any other point style from this list of points and click OK to apply the point style. Type PTYPE on the command line and press enter, Point Style window will open with a list of available point styles. The default point is the very small pixel sized dot which is great for most of the uses like making a reference.īut you can also change the default point style using PTYPE command. The points will not be selectable by default, to make these points selectable activate node option in the object snap status bar option as shown in the image below. To make the point simply type PO press enter and then click at a point on the drawing area or specify the coordinates of the point where you want to make the point.īy default, the point will appear as a single dot in the drawing area and you can take reference of these points to make your drawing. But most people and most drawings use plot styles, so you should at least be familiar with them.In AutoCAD, you can make simple points using the POINT or PO command, these points are also called nodes. If the drawings you want to plot have layer and object properties (especially lineweights) that reflect how you want objects to plot, you can dispense with plot styles. It’s remotely possible that you won’t need to bother with plot styles.
