Move, Copy Polygon (MovPol, CopPol)
Type: Interactive Application
Moves or copies entities defined by a polygon.
Detailed Description
Allows a polygon to be selected, then interactively moves or copies the entities inside the polygon.
It can be started with two different commands. The MovPol command will always start in Move mode and the CopPol command will always start in Copy mode.
Entities may be selected by clipping, crossing, or inside. Entities from multiple workspaces may be moved or copied, with the new data going into the current workspace.
