Block saving and insertion


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have been building a 3D DWG library of robots and other automation objects. What do I need to be doing to save the objects so that when one object is inserted into a new drawing with other objects to build a automation cell the objects are actually where I think I am placing them rather than off in space at the edge of reality?

Move the objects to 0,0, set the UCS to equal the WCS, then block them out with 0,0 as the insertion point.

To further clarify, move the objects within the block(s) so 0,0,0 is at the point you want to use to place the block when you insert it.
