COPYM (Express Tool)

Copies multiple objects with Repeat, Array, Divide and Measure options.

Find

The COPYM Express Tool provides options for creating multiple copies of selected objects. These options are similar to those in the Array option in the COPY command.

Note: COPYM does not support direct distance entry. Use absolute or relative coordinates, grid snaps, or object snaps.

Dialog Box Options

The following options are displayed:

Repeat Repeats the last copy using the same offset distance.
Divide Linear divide option. Prompts for an additional point and the number of copies to make. Makes evenly spaced copies of the selected objects between the base point and the second selected point.
Measure Linear measure option. Prompts for an additional point and the distance between copies. Makes evenly spaced copies at the specified distance between the base point and the second selected point.
Array Displays the Array Options prompt: Pick (dynamic)/Measure/Divide <Pick>:

Array options include the following:

Pick Allows you to interactively specify array elements. Prompts for an angle and then prompts for a point to establish row and column offset distances. The cursor snaps to regular intervals at the specified row and column offsets so that you can select one array element location one at a time.
Measure Allows you to specify a box to fill with copies of the selected objects. Prompts for an angle, a point to establish row or column offsets and an additional box corner point. The base point is used as the first corner of the box.
Divide Allows you specify a box to fill with copies of the selected objects. Prompts for an angle, and a point to establish the second box corner point. The base point is used as the first corner of the box. Then prompts for the number of rows and the number of columns.
