Quick Reference

To create a rotation snap for multiple rotated copies using grips

1. Select the objects to rotate.
2. Select a base grip on an object by clicking the grip.

   The selected grip is highlighted, and the default grip mode, Stretch, is active.

3. Cycle through the grip modes by pressing Enter until the grip mode Rotate appears.

   Alternatively, you can right-click to display shortcut menu modes and options.

4. Enter c (Copy).
5. Move the pointing device and click.

   The rotation snap is the angle between the grip you selected and the location you specified for the copy.

6. Hold down Ctrl and place additional copies by specifying additional locations.

   These copies are created at the same rotation snap angle as the first copy.

7. Turn off grips by pressing Enter, Spacebar, or Esc.
