The selected object, or cornerstone element, is assumed to be in the lower-left
corner, and generates the array up and to the right.
The specified distance between the rows and columns includes the
corresponding lengths of the object to be arrayed.
Enter the distance between rows or specify unit cell (---):
To add rows downward, specify a negative value for the distance between
rows. ARRAY skips the next prompt if you specify two points for the opposite
corners of a rectangle.
Specify the distance between columns (|||):
To add columns to the left, specify a negative value for the distance between
columns. Rectangular arrays are constructed along a baseline defined by the
current snap rotation. This angle is normally 0, so the rows and columns are
orthogonal with respect to the X and Y drawing axes. The Rotate option of
the
SNAP on page 1782 command changes the angle and creates a rotated array.
The
SNAPANG on page 2539 system variable stores the snap rotation angle.
If you specify a large number of rows and columns for the array, it might take
a while to create the copies. By default, the maximum number of array
elements that you can generate in one command is 100,000. The limit is set
by the MAXARRAY setting in the registry. To reset the limit to 200,000, for
example, enter (setenv "MaxArray" "200000") at the Command prompt.
Polar
Creates an array by copying the selected objects around a specified center
point.
Specify center point of array or [Base]: Specify a point or enter b to specify a new
base point
Center Point Creates an array defined by a center point.
