Select Blocks and then select T111_3 (the block you just defined by inserting the T111_3.dwg drawing into the current drawing).

If you left-click at the rotation angle prompt you get the orientation that is currently displayed on-screen. Then invoke a 90 degree tooltip angle shown below and left-click to use this as the rotation angle.Ĩ- Use a similar technique to insert three more CHAIR blocks as shown below. You unchecked Specify on-screen for Rotation so this time you are prompted for a rotation angle (other than the default of zero).ħ- Verify that the POLAR status bar button is On (left-click on it if it is Off).
