Creating Patterns of Duplicate Entities
Many types of drawings make it necessary to use the same entity in several
instances that create a pattern, such as a row of bolts or a circular pattern of
holes. An easy way to create a pattern of entities is to use either of the
AutoArray commands—Symbol Array or Rubber Stamp Array. An array is a
pattern of identical sets of entities. Symbol Array allows you to create a
pattern of symbols, while Rubber Stamp Array allows you to create a pattern
of selected entities. Both commands afford you the flexibility of drag-and-
drop design. Simply select the symbol or entities you want to duplicate, select
the array pattern, and draw the array entity.
