This paper is concerned with the methodology applicable to automating computer drafting tasks of a Computer-Aided Drafting and Design (CADD) system. One of the main characteristics of these tasks is the need for interaction with geometric models and their features. The specific drafting task considered in this paper was dimensioning of a multiview drawing. The paper illustrates the approach used and describes the introduction of relevant knowledge base as well as implementation of an inference engine internal to the drafting system. A simple class of objects was used to illustrate in more details the methods involved. It is noted that developing this methodology may be of vital importance for further automation of the drafting and design process.
