Rotate group of objects about center point?

autodeskguest

Hi would like to rotate a group of objects 180 degrees about their

combined center. It is too difficult to accurately do this using the

mouse, how can get this done?

    Hi Glenn

     

    To rotate elements about a point on the board, I would do it thus:

     

    Enter into the command line

    Display NONE 21 23;

     

     

    The group pivots around the MARK by 180 degrees

    Enter into the command line

    Display NONE 21 23;

    <enter>

    Select MARK and click at the spot you call the center

    Enter into the command line

    rotate R180 (c>R0 0)

    <enter>

     

    The group pivots around the MARK by 180 degrees

    Hi Warren, thanks for the response. I am having trouble manually finding

    the exact center of the group. Is there anyway to tell Eagle to locate

    the cursor to that point?

     

    Thanks
