Modifying Your Geometry

About this lesson

Rather than redrawing, most CAD work is reshaping what's already there. This lesson covers the core editing commands for repositioning and duplicating geometry.

What you'll learn in Modifying Your Geometry

• Moving and copying entities with base points
• Rotating around a point by angle or reference
• Scaling geometry up or down
• Mirroring parts of a drawing
• Combining these with entity snaps for precise edits

Key commands & tools

Coming from AutoCAD? These commands use the same base point and displacement prompts as AutoCAD, so existing habits carry straight over.
