Top AutoCAD Skills

1. Basic navigation - The first step to becoming an AutoCAD expert is mastering the basic navigation commands. This includes knowing how to zoom in and out, pan around the drawing, and rotate the view. With these skills, you'll be able to quickly get around any drawing file no matter how large or complex it is.
