Class Description: What is an Event? An event is something that happens. This could be anything! Generally an event causes other events to occur and events also require reaction or handling. In AutoCAD, events are triggered when certain predefined activities occur. Events such as a drawing being opened, an entity being created, or a mouse button being clicked are all examples of events that can be handled within the AutoCAD environment. There are many different uses for events within AutoCAD.
