Input Values: After initiating the command, a user interface will prompt you to input specific values relevant to the shop drawing you wish to create. Apply Button: Once you've inputted the required values, click the "Apply" button within the user interface to initiate the drawing creation process. Shop Drawing Creation: Upon clicking "Apply," the command will process the input values and generate the shop drawing based on the provided parameters.

FNDCOG

Enter Command: Type "FNDCOG" into the AutoCAD command line or activate it through the software's menu or toolbar. Select 3D View: After initiating the command, the user will be prompted to select a 3D view within the AutoCAD environment. This could be a specific perspective or orientation of the 3D model. COG Creation: Upon selecting the desired 3D view, the command will calculate and generate the Center of Gravity (COG) for the objects or components visible in that view. The COG represents the point at which the total weight of a 3D object is considered to be concentrated. Output: The COG coordinates or marker will be displayed within the selected 3D view. Further Actions: Users can utilize the calculated COG for various purposes, such as structural analysis, placement optimization, or design validation.
