Scale Factor Resizes the image. For example, if the base image size is 36 x 24
and you enter a scale factor of 2, the underlay will display at 72 x 48.
Rotation Sets an angle of rotation for the underlay.
External Reference Prompts
Path to File Enters the location of the external reference file including the
file name.
Reference Type Selects whether to attach this file as an underlay or an overlay.

another drawing.
Insertion Point Specifies the location of the lower, left-hand corner of the
external reference by clicking on screen or entering the X,Y coordinates.
Scale Sets the scale factor for the X,Y, and Z axes. The scale for the Z axis is
the absolute value of the specified scale factor.
■ Specify scale factor for XYZ axes: Enter a nonzero value
■ Specify insertion point:
■ Specify rotations angle <0>:
X, Y, Z Sets the X, Y, and Z scale factor.
■ Specifies scale factor for XYZ axes: Enter a nonzero value
■ Specifies insertion point:
■ Specifies rotations angle <0>:
Rotate Sets the rotation angle for both the individual blocks and the entire
array.
PScale Sets the scale factor for the X, Y, and Z axes to control the display of
the block as it is dragged into position.
PX, PY, PZ Sets the scale factor for the X, Y, and Z axes to control the display
of the block as it is dragged into position.
PRotate Sets the rotation angle of the block as it is dragged into position.
