link To use object linking and embedding (OLE) to reference data in another
file. When data is linked, any changes to it in the source document are
automatically updated in any destination document. See also embed.
LL84 coordinate system Common latitude longitudinal-based coordinate
system where latitude and longitude are both measured from -90 to 90 degrees.
Longitude begins at 0 degrees at the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, England
and is measured from -180 to 180.
Latitude is 0 degrees at the equator and is measured from -90 to 90.
lumen The SI unit of luminous flux (Symbol: lm). Cd * Sr
lux The SI unit of illuminance (symbol: lx). Lm/m^2
main customization file A writable CUI file that defines most of the user
interface elements (including the standard menus, toolbars, keyboard
accelerators, and so on). The acadlt.cuix file (the default main CUI file) is
automatically loaded when you start AutoCAD LT.
markup A single comment or a redline geometry correction inserted into a
DWF file using Autodesk Design Review.
markup set A group of markups contained within a single DWF file.
merge In tables, an adjacent cell selection that has been combined into a
single cell.
mirror To create a new version of an existing object by reflecting it
symmetrically with respect to a prescribed line or plane. (MIRROR)
mode A software setting or operating state.
model A two- or three-dimensional representation of an object.
model space One of the two primary spaces in which objects reside. Typically,
a geometric model is placed in a three-dimensional coordinate space called
model space. A final layout of specific views and annotations of this model is
placed in paper space. See also paper space. (MSPACE)
model viewports A type of display that splits the drawing area into one or
more adjacent rectangular viewing areas. See also layout viewports, TILEMODE,
and viewport. (VPORTS)
multi-functional grip menu options Editing options you can access from
the grip menu that appears when you hover over an object grip (not available
for all object types).
multi-sheet DWF A DWF file that contains multiple sheets.
