Erase Removes an object or selected objects<br />
Extrude An operation which transforms 2D objects into 3D by forcing<br />
out <strong>the</strong> plan view <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> object into a specified height.<br />
Flexibility The quality <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> s<strong>of</strong>tware to be adaptable or variable<br />
General Purpose S<strong>of</strong>tware designed to be useful for a broad range <strong>of</strong> tasks or<br />
S<strong>of</strong>tware domains<br />
Geometric Modifies <strong>the</strong> properties <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> objects, such as shape,<br />
Transformations coordinates or angle, apart from its topology. ‘Move’, ‘rotate’,<br />
‘scale’, ‘reflect’ and ‘shear’ transformations are some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
examples.<br />
Global Rendering A rendering method that allows having a real time rendering<br />
by taking account <strong>of</strong> every single light source reflecting from<br />
each objects on <strong>the</strong> scene. It is such a technique that advances<br />
illumination from one environmental light source to many light<br />
sources in order to calculate shading more accurately.<br />
Grids A two-dimensional structure made up <strong>of</strong> a series <strong>of</strong><br />
intersecting vertical and horizontal axes used to structure<br />
content in a drawing<br />
Grouping Provides grouping <strong>of</strong> 2D or 3D objects as if <strong>the</strong>y react like one<br />
object.<br />
Hatching To shade <strong>the</strong> defined areas by drawing or etching fine parallel<br />
or crossed lines on<br />
Hidden Line Removes any line hidden from view assuming surfaces are<br />
opaque.<br />
Interface A boundary physical or logical, between two physical or<br />
logical systems: e.g. a person and a computer<br />
Interoperability The ability to exchange and use information between different<br />
s<strong>of</strong>tware to communicate<br />
Intersect Operation Creates an object from <strong>the</strong> overlapping geometry <strong>of</strong> two<br />
objects<br />
Isometric View It is a method <strong>of</strong> visually representing three-dimensional<br />
objects in two dimensions, in which <strong>the</strong> three coordinate axes<br />
appear equally foreshortened and <strong>the</strong> angles between any two<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m are 120°<br />
Layer Used to categorize information in a drafting system<br />
