The nal drape shape
Duplicate the drape6
The Duplicate Tool has options that allow you to duplicate multiple copies of the same
object, separated by a xed translation or rotation value. For example, if you make one
drape, you can make many other copies separated by 45 degrees, all in one easy step.
With the • drape selected, select Edit → Duplicate Special → o.
Set the • Number of Copies to 7.
In order to determine the proper rotation axis, look at the view axis located at the bottom
left corner of each view. If you want the copies to be created around the positive Y-axis,
enter a value in the second eld of the rotate vector. If you would like to create copies to
be created along a translation axis, enter a value in the elds of the translate vector.
Axis letter points toward its positive values
Set the second • Rotate value to 45 and leave the others at 0.
Click the • Duplicate Special button.
