11 Hybrid Editing Tools Find Next Click this button and the found item will be skipped To modify position or the size of the replacing object, use the following buttons: Move. Specify a new position for the replacement object's base point. Scale. Enter a scale factor for the replacement object. Available only for vector objects. Rotate. Enter a rotation angle for the replacement object around its base point. Available only for vector objects. Replace. If the replacement sample has been specified, then it will be inserted. Depending on the Erase checkbox setting, the found item can be either erased or left intact. After replacement, the program continues searching for the next item. Replace All Continues the operation in automatic mode. Cancel Search Cancels the current search-replace operation. Close Stops the search-replace procedure. 6. If the program finds the next object, then the user can perform any operation described in step 5. When no more objects can be found, the procedure is completed. Raster Snap Raster snap allows creating and editing objects, based on geometry of other raster objects. For example, you can draw a line, the end point of which coincides with another raster line end point, or stretch an arc so that its end point is placed on a characteristic point of raster line. You can turn on raster snap at the time when AutoCAD is waiting for the entry of coordinates. In this case this mode is only applied to the next selected object. You can also setup one or several raster snap modes as running snaps. These modes stay active until you turn them off. You can only use raster snap on monochrome raster image. When you select points on the image with raster snap mode on, a square raster snap pickbox appears on the cursor cross. When you place this pickbox on the object, the program finds an appropriate point on the object for the specified snap mode, and transfers the calculated coordinates to the current command. If there are several possible snap points, then the closest one to the point specified is chosen. 163

To modify position or the size of the replacing object, use the following buttons:
Move
.
Specify a new position for the replacement object’s base point.
Scale
.
Enter a scale factor for the replacement object. Available only for vector
objects.
Rotate
.
Enter a rotation angle for the replacement object around its base point.
Available only for vector objects.
Replace.
If the replacement sample has been specified, then it will be inserted.
Depending on the

checkbox setting, the found item can be either
erased or left intact. After replacement, the program continues
searching for the next item.
Replace All
Continues the operation in automatic mode.

If the program finds the next object, then the user can perform any operation
described in step 5. When no more objects can be found, the procedure is
completed.
Raster Snap
Raster snap allows creating and editing objects, based on geometry of other raster
objects. For example, you can draw a line, the end point of which coincides with
another raster line end point, or stretch an arc so that its end point is placed on a
characteristic point of raster line.
You can turn on raster snap at the time when AutoCAD is waiting for the entry of
coordinates. In this case this mode is only applied to the next selected object. You
can also setup one or several raster snap modes as running snaps. These modes
stay active until you turn them off.
You can only use raster snap on monochrome raster image. When you select
points on the image with raster snap mode on, a square
raster snap pickbox
appears on the cursor cross. When you place this pickbox on the object, the
program finds an appropriate point on the object for the specified snap mode, and
transfers the calculated coordinates to the current command. If there are several
possible snap points, then the closest one to the point specified is chosen.
