Copy Rotate

To copy parts of a structure, from the main menu toolbar select Create > Copy > Rotate to display the Copy and Rotate window which allows you to specify what to copy (Object), where the copies are to be stored in the database hierarchy (to), how many copies are required, and how each copy is to be positioned relative to its neighbour that precedes it (Offset).

The Rotation Axis is displayed in the 3D graphical view as a guide.

The Angle setting is determined relative to the Rotation Axis.

The Direction gives the axis in which the object rotates. The distance the rotated object is from the centre of the axis is determined by the figure in the XEast/YNorth/ZUp text boxes.

The Offset, Cursor and Intersection drop-down menu selections determine how the copy appears in relation to the original.
