Try It: Draw a Rectangle
You can select the rectangle from the Rectangle toolbar or press ENTER at the
Rectangle command options to open the Rectangles dialog box.
For this exercise, attach a circular plate beside the gland you created. Select
the rectangle with the height-middle insertion point. Locate its middle point,
and specify its full base as 14 mm and its full height as 76 mm.
The program creates the rectangle and places it at the specified location.
