AutoCAD can be used to create a simple "walk through" of any 3D model. For example, if you have designed a new pedestrianisation scheme for a town centre, you could use AutoCAD to give a slide presentation to show how the scheme would look from a pedestrian eye view as the person moved through the space. This is an extremely useful technique for presenting schemes to clients or the general public who may not necessarily have a good understanding of plans.
In order to create such a slide show you need to learn a number of new commands. This handout will describe those commands in the order in which they will normally be used to create a slide show. The commands are: DVIEW which is used to create the perspective views, DDVIEW to save the perspective views, SHADE to shade the views, MSLIDE to make the slides, VSLIDE to view the slides and SCRIPT to run a script file which will automate the process of viewing a number of slides in a predetermined order.
