Arrange is a plug-in for Autodesk® AutoCAD® for arranging objects.

General Usage Instructions

After installation, all commands are accessed via the Arrange tab or by typing their aliases in the command bar.

To use the "Align" commands (e.g. "Align Min X"), follow these steps:

  1. From the ribbon, choose Arrange tab ➪ Align panel ➪ Align Min X (you can also type the command AMINX in the command bar).
  2. At the Select control object or [Point] prompt: select the object you want to use as a reference object, or choose the Point option.
  3. In case of choosing the Point option, at the Specify control point prompt: pick a point you want to use as a reference point.
  4. At the Select objects for alignment prompt, select objects you want to align then press Enter (or right-click).

 

To use the "Distribute" commands (e.g. "Distribute Min X"), follow these steps:

  1. From the ribbon, choose Arrange tab ➪ Distribute panel ➪ Distribute Min X (you can also type the command DMINX in the command bar).
  2. At the Select objects for distribution prompt, select the objects you want to distribute then press Enter (or right-click).

 

To use the "Displace" commands (e.g. "Displace X"), follow these steps:

  1. From the ribbon, choose Arrange tab ➪ Displace panel ➪ Displace X (you can also type the command DIX in the command bar).
  2. At the Select control object prompt, select the object you want to use as a reference object.
  3. At the Select objects for displacement prompt, select objects you want to displace then press Enter (or right-click).
  4. At the Specify displacement prompt, enter your desired amount of spacing between objects. (you can also specify it directly on the screen)

 

To use the "Attract" commands (e.g. "Attract X"), follow these steps:

  1. From the ribbon, choose Arrange tab ➪ Attract panel ➪ Attract X (you can also type the command ATX in the command bar).
  2. At the Select control object or [Point] prompt, select the object you want to use as a reference object, or choose the Point option.
  3. In the case of choosing the Point option, at the Specify control point prompt, pick a point you want to use as a reference point.
  4. At the Select objects for attraction prompt, select the objects you want to attract then press Enter (or right-click).
  5. At the Attraction mode: [Predecessors/Successors] prompt, select the Predecessors option if you want the objects to be attracted before the control object or point, or select the Successors option if you want the objects to be attracted after the control object or point.
