AutoCAD prompts you if you want to turn off that layer.
AutoCAD turns off the current drafting layer with no prompt.

Q3. Sometimes you will need to match properties of one object to another using the Match Properties (MATCHPROP) command.

Nothing. The viewport scale remains the same.
The viewport scale returns to the default 1:1 scale.

Q10. External reference files (XREFs) link external drawings to the host drawing. You can set the XREF path type to no path, relative path, or full path. What value should be used for the relative path type?

REFPATHTYPE = 2
REFPATHTYPE = 3
REFPATHTYPE = 1
REFPATHTYPE = 0

Q11. One of the benefits of a locked viewport in a layout is that you can activate it and work through the viewport on the objects and annotation in the model space, without worrying about affecting the viewport scale. What is the space in the activated viewport commonly known as when you do this?

scaled model space
layout model space
floating model space
viewport model space

Q12. When working in a layout, if a viewport is activated and unlocked and you accidentally zoom in or out, what happens to your viewport scale?

The viewport scale changes to the next available standard scale.
Nothing. The viewport scale remains the same.Nothing. The viewport scale remains the same.
The viewport scale returns to the default 1:1 scale.
The viewport scale changes to a nonstandard scale.

Q13. When using annotative scaling with dimensions and an annotative dimension style, which two variables need to match for the dimensioning to display in a scaled viewport?

drawing scale and viewport scale
insertion scale and viewport scale
block scale and viewport scale
annotation scale and viewport scale

Q14. You can share tool palettes with other AutoCAD users, provided that the palette source drawing location does not change. What file do you need to share to ensure that another user is using the same tool palette?

Shared Tool Palette (STP) file
New Tool Palette (NTP) file
Exported Tool Palette (XTP) file
User Tool Palette (UTP) file

Q15. A crossing selection selects what objects?

only the objects completely outside the crossing selection
only the objects not encompassed nor crossed by the crossing selection
only the objects completely encompassed by the crossing selection
only the objects completely encompassed and crossed by the crossing selection

Q16. You can dimension objects in AutoCAD from the Annotation panel on the Home tab of the ribbon. Where else can you dimension on the ribbon?

the Dimension panel on the Annotate tab
the Dimensional panel on the Parametric tab
the Palettes panel on the View tab
the Reference panel on the Insert tab

Q17. When drawing a group of line segments with the LINE command, which command on the right-click shortcut menu allows you to form a closed boundary and snap back to the start point of the first line segment?

CLOSE
ENTER
CANCEL
UNDO

Q18. AutoCAD allows you to create elliptical arcs in drawings. When creating one of these arcs, which default drafting rule do you need to follow?

Arcs follow a counterclockwise (positive angle value) path.
Arcs follow a clockwise (positive angle value) path.
Arcs always follow a path with a negative angle value.
Arcs follow a user-defined path.

Q19. Linetype Scale (LTSCALE) is applied to what sort of linetypes in AutoCAD drawings?

any objects that utilize a continuous linetype
any objects that utilize any linetype
any objects that utilize a dashed or dotted linetype, or a combination of both
any objects that utilize a colored or continuous linetype, or a combination of both

Q20. By default, all of the ARRAY commands make their respective arrays associative and group the selected objects in the array. What command would you use to convert the selected array into individual AutoCAD objects?

EATTEDIT
WBLOCK
EXPLODE
PROPERTIES

Q21. Which command opens a folder where you can start the Add-a-Plotter wizard?

QUICKSETUP
STYLESMANAGER
PLOTTERMANAGER
PLOTTERWIZARD

Q22. Dimensions in a drawing can be spaced automatically with the Adjust Space (DIMSPACE) command. You can specify a distance between spaced dimensions or you can use the Auto option. What does Auto do to the dimensions being spaced?

calculates the Auto space as one and a half times (1.5x) the text height of the text in the dimension style being used
calculates the Auto space as twice the distance between the first and second dimensions selected for spacing
calculates the Auto space as three times (3x) the text height of the text in the dimension style being used

Q23. There is often a need to hide or isolate selected objects, especially in complex drawings when detailing geometry. Where would you find the Isolate menu option—which is not on the ribbon?

the status bar
a right-click shortcut menu after object selection
the Quick Access toolbar (QAT)
the navigation bar

Q24. System variables can be monitored in AutoCAD. When monitored, they can also be reset to preferred values. What command is used to control these system variables?

SYSVARMONITOR
SYSVARMON
SYSTEMVARIABLEMON
SYSVARIABLEMONITOR

Q25. When using HIDE or ISOLATE in a drawing, the objects are either hidden or isolated for clarity. What happens to the layers of hidden or isolated objects?

The hidden and isolated object layers go on to their own layer.
The isolated object layers stay on; all other layers are turned off in the Layer Properties Manager.
Nothing happens.
The hidden object layers turn off; all other layers stay on in the Layer Properties Manager.

Q26. When scaling a drawing from imperial feet and inches to metric millimeters, what scale factor do you use in the SCALE command, before adjusting your units settings?

25.4
0.03937
12.0
0.08333

Q27. When drawing line objects in a drawing, you may use coordinates to define distance and direction. One type of coordinate is a relative coordinate, which is relative to the last point specified—often the second point when drawing a line using the LINE command. What prefix symbol should you type in front of 2D X,Y coordinates to ensure that AutoCAD knows it is a relative coordinate input?

#X,Y
@X,Y
R-(X,Y)
REL X,Y

Q28. Center Mark (CENTERMARK), a new annotation tool for circles and arcs, provides an associative center mark that can be edited easily and remains associative to its geometry. Which AutoCAD system variable controls the extension line overshoots that go past the circumference of the circle or arc?

CENTEREXE
CENTERLTSCALE
CENTERMARKEXE
