Midterm Exam Questions 1. If you use Divide command and nothing seems to happen, what should you do to make the points visible? Answer. Because the default setting for setting points is one pixel dot, you may need to access the Point Style dialog to increase the point style size. 2. What command can you use to place point objects that mark 24 equal segments on a line? Answer. You can use Divide command to place point objects that mark 24 equal segments on a line. 3. What is the difference between Divide and Measure Commands? Answer. The Measure command does not break an object at specific lengths and Divide command does. 4. What command let you to access Point Style dialog box? DDPTYPE 5. How do you draw a single point, and how do you draw multiple points? Answer.
