AutoCAD 2009 - Interactive Array Preview

Hello new visitor!. Please subscribe to my RSS feed or sign up by email to receive updates on the latest posts.
Most of us have been using the array command for a long time. I would also venture a guess that most of us get frustrated when what we do in the array command is not what we really want it to do. Huh? I mean, how many times have you set the array command just to find out it wasn’t what you wanted? What if you could see what you were doing before you did it?

In AutoCAD there is a preview, sure, but lets face it, it’s awful. Not any more! Now you can pan, zoom, and actually navigate the drawing before you accept the array command. Now you can take a look at the entire array, or even the drawing, before you are finished!

Start the array command, array something (be creative-have fun with it), make your settings, and now preview. Pan around, zoom, pan some more, etc. Is it what you wanted? Of course, you are that good! Now just click anywhere or press the Escape Key to return to the array dialog box, or right-click to accept it, it’s just like the plot preview.
