We've got a very interesting command. The REVCLOUD
command. The commands has get to do with drawing a
revision cloud.

Using the REVCLOUD command you can draw a revision
cloud. To indicate what has been changed in the drawing
or so.

How a revision cloud is created. Easy. REVCLOUD is
typed at the command prompt and the REVCLOUD command
starts. These are the prompts.

Minimum arc length: 10 Maximum arc length: 10
Style: Normal
Specify start point or [Arc length/Object/Style]
<Object>:

In the first prompt the settings of the REVCLOUD
command are given. Also the style of the revision cloud
is given. That can be NORMAL and CALLIGRAPHY.

We want to change the lengths of the arc. We type A at
the prompt of the REVCLOUD command. We can now enter a
values for the lengths of the arc.

If you type S at the prompt of the REVCLOUD command,
you can change the style that is used. You can go for
the NORMAL style and the CALLIGRAPHY style.

We have the option to select an object. That is the
default option. To invoke that option the right mouse
button is pressed.

We can select any object. A line, a circle, an arc, a
polyline. But take care. Because what we select is
turned into a revision cloud.

But let's do it in the way that is used most of the
time. We pick a point. That point is the start point of
the revision cloud. We move the cursor over the screen.

The cursor is moved around the object around which we
want to add a revision cloud. As the cursor is moved a
revision cloud is drawn.

When we come back to the point where we started the
revision cloud, the revision cloud is closed. An arc is
drawn.

There is a lot you can do with a revision cloud. You
can put it on its own layer. And you can do soemthing
with the width of the revision cloud.

The revision cloud that has been drawn is a polyline.
You can change the width of the polyline. Use the PEDIT
command. You know how it is done.

OK. I've told you everything about the REVCLOUD
command. And I've shown to you what options the
REVCLOUD command has got.

But I must tell you something more. I must tell you
about the styles of the REVCLOUD command. There are two
styles. NORMAL and CALLIGRAPHY.

A revision cloud with a normal style has got a polyline
with a fixed width. A calligraphy revision cloud has
arcs witha starting width and an ending width.

Yes, I was a bit surprised it was her-- never exactly liked the tune or
Mitchel-- so thanks to you, I went back and got a certain Judy Collins'
(still 'Both Sides Now'). And there's a new kid who's apparently done a
remake too... Can they please put some old songs to rest finally?
And I wish that some online lyrics sites would respectfully post the
original artists, singers and writers, etc..

Fortunately, I'm unaware of those 2, at least by name...
Please do not attempt to help me find out if I actually do know them. ;)

I think I'll aggravate all of you by posting a link to the WORST video
every. Not only is the production quality spectacularly bad, with the
choreography, but the lyrics are some of the worst ever written. Even
they would make a vogon cry.

So...without further warning, I post up:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8610362188397291938&q=worst+music+video+ever

Don't say I didn't warn you.
