Chapter 22
Moving, Rotating, & Resizing Entities
Once you create a duplicate parallel or offset entity, it becomes a separate
independent entity. You can edit, move, or delete either the original or the
duplicate without affecting the other.
Creating an offset or parallel duplicate of a polyline or polygon differs
slightly from doing the same thing with lines, arcs, and circles. Holding CTRL
while clicking on a segment causes AutoSketch to duplicate a single segment
rather than the entire entity.
To create a parallel line, arc, or circle
1
On the Draw menu, click Duplicate, Parallel, or click the Parallel button
on the All-In-One toolbar.
2
Click the line, arc, or circle you want to duplicate. A rubber-band entity
follows the movement of the pointer.
3
Position the rubber-band entity in the new location and click.
To create a duplicate line, arc, or circle that is offset at a specific distance
1
On the Draw menu, click Duplicate, then click Offset, or click the Offset
button on the All-In-One toolbar.
2
(optional) Enter a new value in the Offset Distance text box on the edit
bar and press ENTER.
3
Position the pointer on, and slightly toward the side where you want
AutoSketch to create the new entity and click. Notice that a rubber-band
entity follows the pointer.
To create a parallel polyline or polygon
1
On the Draw menu, click Duplicate, Parallel, or click the Parallel button
on the All-In-One toolbar.
2
(optional) Press CTRL to duplicate a single segment.
3
Click the polyline or polygon you want to duplicate. A rubber-band entity
follows the movement of the pointer.
4
Position the rubber-band entity in the new location and click.
