Abstract
Arrays are very useful tools in AutoCAD to create patterns of objects. These patterns can be of a circular, linear, or path type, hence the polar array, rectangular array, and path array are discussed. This chapter introduces the various arrays by assuming that the student is new to AutoCAD and has never used or seen the older, legacy, version of the command. A polar array is a collection of objects around some common point arranged in a circle. An example in architecture is a group of chairs arranged around a circular table. The legacy rectangular array is accessed via the same methods as the legacy polar array. A path array creates a pattern along any predetermined pathway, of any shape, as opposed to a strictly circular or linear one. This path can be an arc, a pline, or a spline.
