Inserting a copy of a Shared/Non-Shared Group

After starting the InsertGroup Copy command by right-clicking on a shared/non-shared group (no matter whether local or X-Reference (groups)) in the drawing



proceed as follows.
 

1 A copy of the selected group starts moving as you move the mouse.



To change the scale (and/or rotate) X-Reference group, select More Options. In the Rotate and Scale drop-down lists, select the methods to be used:
By value Typing the corresponding numeric values into the Scale (this is a multiplying factor; so scale>1 enlarges the object, scale<1 reduces it) and Angle mini-dialog boxes respectively
Through 2 points Entering two points: Start point and End point. Once you have entered the first point, the angle/scale changes interactively as the cursor moves: once you get the desired angle/scale, click to enter the second point. To change the selected points, right-click on Start point/End point, select Reset in the context menu and specify another point.
The default method is By value. The Angle and Scale mini-dialog boxes are displayed on the X-Reference group.



2 To leave the Angle unchanged and to set the proper scale factor, hit the TAB key. The focus will move onto the Scale box. Type in the scale value.



3 Position the X-Reference group onto the desired point.



To change the selected point, right-click on Origin, select Reset in the context menu and specify another point.

4 Go on positioning further copies of the selected group as many times as needed.



5 Quit the command by clicking .
