Copy doors around the model
- Now that we have a group of doors, we should copy it around into the various locations where it's needed in the model. I'll use the copy command and copy this over from this endpoint, and place it here and then I'll just keep going and copy it across this wall in all these locations. I'll also create another copy here, just floating off in space somewhere. Then, I'll move this over from this endpoint, and I'll snap it right over here in this opening. So we need to rotate those doors around. The rotate command only rotates around the z-axis, so we need to reorient the user coordinate system so the z-axis points upward, like it did initially. We can do that by typing "ucs", Enter, and then I'm going to use the default option, which is in angled brackets; it's called "world". When I hit Enter, it resets the UCS system back to the world system, that is, the original coordinate system that we had when we first started this project. By default, the xy-plane will be on the ground, and the…
