Create a block

When we draw, we will often be to put the same group

objects within an image multiple times. Block is the object that we store and

give it a name so we can include them when drawing each time we need it.

Block is an object, regardless of the number of individual objects used to create it. Because it's one of the objects,

we can easily move, copy, scale, or rotate it.

With the Block command we can create an object of some existing object so the object appears and behaves like a single object.

Definition for the block is stored in the image database and called by the name of the definition block.

Definitions appear in the image block is called a reference block.

One block can exist in the database definition file and do not have a reference image block in the picture.

We can define the block through the options on the Block Definition dialog box. You can define items such as

block name, what would be the definition of blocks, the basic point for the block, what unit is illustrated in block geometry.

The basic point we decide to block defines the point that we will use to position the block when

put it in a picture. This point was also the point of the handle to the block.

For each block we make, we can determine the name and the insertion base point, we can also choose

images to be included in the definition of our block. we also can choose among a variety of other settings is needed.

Specify the name of the block.

Specify the base point.

Click the Select Point to snap to a location on our bodies and restore the X, Y, and Z values ​​or enter the absolute X, Y, and Z values​​.

Click the Select Objects and select the geometry that will be included in this block.

Under Objects, select the option to define what happens to the geometry selected after you click OK to create the block.

Object is either left as individual objects (hold), converted to a reference block, or deleted.

Choose Annotative our behavior and whether to scale and allow for uniform blocks explode based on our needs.

Select the geometry unit.

Enter a description for the block.
