To edit a drawing by using a REM object
1	Open the LiveView_REM.dwg sample file. Zoom in to the upper left corner of the building. You will use window 1 on the upper left as a template to replace window 2.
2	Click Raster menuRaster Entity ManipulationCreate Enhanced Bitonal RegionConnected Fence. Draw the fence across the bottom half of window 2, right-click, and click Enter. The complete outline of the window is converted to a REM region because all the lines are connected to the two lines that crossed the fence.
3	Select the border of the REM region, right-click and click Cut. The window outline is deleted, leaving a red X to mark its bottom left corner.
4	Use another connected fence to create an enhanced bitonal region for window 1. Select the REM region, right-click and click Copy With Base Point.
5	Click the bottom left corner of window 1 to specify the base point, right-click, and click Paste. Align the cursor with the red X for window 2, and click to paste the REM window in the right location.
