AutoCAD Land Development Desktop
Inquiry Commands
To query AutoCAD Land Development Desktop-specific objects, use
one of the AutoCAD Land Development Desktop Inquiry commands.
You can use these commands to query points, geometry, distances,
areas, slopes, and elevations.
Most commands are list-based, meaning that the information is
displayed on the command line. However, Track North/East, uses
a dynamic tracking window that updates when you move the
pointing device.
AutoCAD Land Development Desktop has several other specific
reporting and listing commands. For example, you can:
■
List which raster images are inserted into a drawing and locate the
source files by using the Manage command on the Map
➤
Image
menu.
■
List which alignments are defined in the project by using the List
Defined command on the Alignments
➤
Alignment Commands
menu.
