rkent, one day you 'll have to teach us all the secret handshake.

 

um, thanks. Fax me a donut, I am hungry.

...eldon's method is precisely what I had in mind...

Whoooooooo?! I have to agree with your KIASAP mindset.

 

After seeing rkent's fantastic grip method () I decided it was time to turn off Expert so that I could see all the hidden options. Unfortunately, that didn't help... It wasn't on. Hmmmm.

@ SEANT, that works fantastic for a single instance. If I could specify multiple destinations (2nd point) within the same command then it would be perfect for my application.

You could do it with 2 macros. I cannot yet find a way to do this using a single macro.

 

After you have run the initial macro

^C^C_Select \rotate previous ;\c;r @;

once then you could have a second macro that can continue the process until you choose to end it.

 

It would look like this:

*^C^CRotate;Last;;@;Copy;Reference;@;\\

Adding another level to RKent's tip, hold CTRL after the first copy and AutoCAD will remember the previous increment or angle of the copied objects using the grip method.
