If You Want to Experiment

Try to think of some other keyboard macros you would like to create. For example, you might try to create a macro that copies and rotates an object at the same time. This operation is a fairly common one that can be performed using the Grip Edit options, but you can reduce the number of steps needed to copy and rotate by creating a macro. Review the "Creating Keyboard Macros with AutoLISP" section for help.

Here are some hints to get you started:

• Use the Copy command to copy an object in place.

• Use the same coordinate for the base point and the second point (for example, 0,0).

• Use the Last Selection option to rotate the last object selected, which happens to be the original object that was copied .
