2. The following will appear on the command line:
Command: _mirror
Select objects: select the objects to be mirrored
Select objects: stop selecting objects by selecting <enter>
Specify first point of mirror line: select the 1st end of the mirror line
Specify second point of mirror line: select the 2nd end of the mirror line
Erase source objects? [Yes/No] <N>: select Y or N
Note:
The placement of the “Mirror Line” is important. You may make a mirrored copy horizontally, vertically or on an angle. See examples below and on the previous page.
How to control text when using the Mirror command:
(Do the following before you use the mirror command)
1. At the command line type: mirrtext <enter>
2. If you want the text to mirror (reverse reading) type: 1 <enter>
If you do not want the text to mirror, type: 0 <enter>
The MOVE command is used to move object(s) from their current location (base point) to a new location (second displacement point).
1. Select the Move command using one of the following:
Ribbon = Home tab / Modify Panel /
or
Keyboard = M <enter>
2. The following will appear on the command line:
Command: _move
Select objects: select the object(s) you want to move (P1).
Select objects: select more objects or stop selecting object(s) by selecting <enter>
Specify base point or displacement: select a location (P2) (usually on the object).
Specify second point of displacement or <use first point as displacements>: move the object to its new location (P3) and press the left mouse button.
Warning: If you press <enter> instead of actually picking a new location (P3) with the mouse, AutoCAD will send it into Outer Space. If this happens just select the undo tool and try again.
The Drag option allows you to quickly move or copy an object(s).
Example:
1. Draw a Circle.
2. Select the Circle.
5 little boxes appear. These are Grips and allow you to edit the object.
Grips will be discussed more in future lessons.
3. Click on the Circle and hold the right hand mouse button down as you drag the Circle to the right.
4. When the dragged Circle is in the desired location release the Right Mouse button and an options menu will appear.
5. Select Move Here, Copy Here, or Cancel.
Move Here: The original object selected will move to the new location.
Copy Here: The original object will remain in it’s original location and a copy will appear in the new location.
The Nudge option allows you to nudge objects in orthogonal increments.
Note:
Snap mode affects the distance and direction in which the objects are nudged.
Nudge objects with Snap mode turned OFF:
Objects move two pixels at a time.
Nudge objects with Snap mode turned ON:
Objects are moved in increments specified by the current Snap spacing.
Example:
1. Draw a Circle.
2. Select the Circle.
5 little boxes appear. These are Grips and allow you to edit the object.
Grips will be discussed more in future lessons.
3. Hold down the Ctrl key and press one of the Arrow keys
Remember:
The distance the object moves depends on whether you have the Snap mode ON or OFF. (Refer to note above)
The OFFSET command duplicates an object parallel to the original object at a specified distance. You can offset Lines, Arcs, Circles, Ellipses, 2D Polylines and Splines. You may duplicate the original object or assign the offset copy to another layer.
Examples of Offset objects.
