SynopsisThis versatile text provides a hands-on, guided tutorial through Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005. Tool Palettes are presented in the order in which they are commonly used, which provides a logical organization to the text. Numerous walk-throughs and hands-on activities are used throughout the text to teach commands and routines in relation to the production of architectural drawings. The organization of topics and the presentation of commands in context of applications make this text appropriate for both the traditional classroom and self-paced instruction.
