Base Specifies a new reference (base) point relative to the selected objects that
will remain at a constant distance from the center point of the array as the
objects are arrayed.
Enter the number of items in the array: Enter a positive integer or press ENTER
If you enter a value for the number of items, you must specify either the angle
to fill or the angle between items. If you press ENTER (and do not provide the
number of items), you must specify both.
Specify the angle to fill (+=ccw, -=cw) <360>: Enter a positive integer for a
counterclockwise rotation or a negative integer for a clockwise rotation
You can enter 0 for the angle to fill only if you specify the number of items.
If you specify an angle to fill without providing the number of items, or if
you specify the number of items and enter 0 as the angle to fill or press ENTER,
the following prompt is displayed:
Angle between items: Specify an angle
If you specified the number of items and entered 0 as the angle to fill or pressed
ENTER, ARRAY prompts for a positive or negative value to indicate the
direction of the array:
Angle between items (+=ccw, -=cw): Enter a positive integer for a counterclockwise
rotation or a negative integer for a clockwise rotation
ARRAY determines the distance from the array's center point to a reference
point on the last object selected. The reference point used is the center point
of a circle or arc, the insertion base point of a block, the start point of text,
and one endpoint of a line.
Rotate arrayed objects? <Y>: Enter y or n, or press ENTER
In a polar array, the reference point of the last object in the selection set is
used for all objects. If you defined the selection set by using window or crossing
selection, the last object in the selection set is arbitrary. Removing an object
from the selection set and adding it back forces that object to be the last object
selected. You can also make the selection set into a block and replicate it.
