  1. A drawing file is damaged and will not open normally. Which command should you use to open and repair it?

    Answer: RECOVER

    RECOVER opens a damaged drawing and repairs it, while AUDIT only works on a drawing that is already open.

  2. You run AUDIT on an open drawing and it reports errors. Which response at the prompt fixes the errors automatically?

    Answer: Answer Yes to 'Fix any errors detected?'

    Answering Yes tells AUDIT to correct the errors it finds instead of only listing them.

  3. Hatches and wide polylines show only their outlines instead of solid fills. Which setting is the likely cause?

    Answer: FILLMODE is set to 0

    When FILLMODE is 0, solid fills are hidden, and you need to run REGEN after changing it.

  4. After a crash, which file extension do AutoCAD automatic saves use by default?

    Answer: .sv$

    Automatic saves are written as .sv$ files in the folder set by SAVEFILEPATH.

  5. Text in a drawing appears as empty rectangles instead of characters. Which setting is the most likely cause?

    Answer: QTEXT is on

    Quick Text (QTEXT) shows text as bounding boxes so the screen redraws faster.

  6. A hatch does not fill an area because the boundary has small gaps. Which variable lets the hatch ignore gaps up to a set size?

    Answer: HPGAPTOL

    HPGAPTOL sets the largest gap that is allowed when a hatch boundary is not fully closed.

  7. The command line has disappeared from the AutoCAD window. Which keyboard shortcut brings it back?

    Answer: Ctrl+9

    Ctrl+9 turns the command line window on and off.
