Rotate an object

With AutoCAD, we can easily rotate an object or objects around a base point we specify.

Base point is usually the object snap points on an object to show the rotation and determining the rotation angle.

By default, zero degrees is to the right, and the degree will be increased in the opposite direction.

To change the default, select Application Button> Drawing Utilities> Units. By setting a negative angle, we can rotate the object clockwise.

To rotate the object,

select the Home tab> Modify panel> Rotate.

Or, select an object and then select Rotate.

At the Specify base point: prompt, shows a central point for the object that we play.

At the Specify rotation angle or [Copy / Reference]: prompt, type the angle in the command line.
