Rotating entities

You can rotate entities about a specified point at a specified rotation angle or by an angle referenced to a base angle. The default method rotates the entities using a relative rotation angle from their current orientation.

To rotate a selection set

  1. Do one of the following:
  2. Select the entities, and then press Enter.
  3. Specify the rotation point.
  4. Specify the rotation angle.

 

To rotate an entity, select the entity to rotate (A), and then specify the rotation point (B) and the rotation angle (C).

To rotate a selection set in reference to a base angle

  1. Do one of the following:
  2. Select the entities, and then press Enter.
  3. Specify the rotation point.
  4. In the prompt box, choose Base Angle.
  5. Specify the base angle.
  6. Specify the new angle.

 

To rotate an entity in reference to a base angle, select the entity (A), specify the rotation point (B), select the base angle and pick point (B) again (or type the @ symbol), specify the second point (C), and then specify the point representing the new angle (D).
