    I have a drawing from a contractor who didn't change the default
    fillet setting. Now the drawing is littered with the one inch fillet
    arcs. Is there an easy way to get rid of these tiny fillets? TIA.

    Using QSELECT you could select all arcs with radius=1 then erase
    them....assuming there aren't some 1" arcs you want to keep in the
    same general selection area.

  4. Just be aware that your lines don't meet at corners on this drawing, and you
    probably can't hatch anything.

    Yup, I know. I sit here on a Saturday afternoon refilleting all the
    corners.

  6. You know about using a crossing with the command? It saves a bit of
    picking....

  8. Instead of picking both lines with separate clicks of the mouse, at the
    <Select first object>: prompt you respond with "c" to use a crossing window
    to select both lines quickly. Works best when you have some black space
    around the joint. It's quicker when you can be sloppy about picking 2 points
    in space rather than lining up 2 objects in your pickbox.
