Creating Arrays
Use this procedure to create an array of identical linework (such as hatches
and polylines), architectural objects (such as doors and walls), AEC polygons,
or profile-based objects (such as mass element extrusions, and spaces). You
can also array any block-based content (including detail components) made
up of these types of linework and objects.
1 Select the linework, object, or block to array.
2 Click Home tab ➤ Modify panel ➤ ➤ Arrays
drop-down ➤ AEC Array .
3 Select an edge and drag the cursor to specify the direction of the
array for a rectangular array.
The number of objects you are adding to the array is displayed in
the tooltip as Array Count.
Arraying a block
4 Enter a value for the distance offset between each instance of the
linework or object, and press ENTER.
Alternately, for a polar array, specify two points to establish the
angle of the array, enter a value for the distance offset between
the linework or object, and press ENTER.
5 Click in the drawing area to specify the endpoint of the array.
For more information on arrays, see “Array Dialog Box” in
AutoCAD Help.
