Insert

This option is used when you want to insert a whole drawing (stored in your computer) into an existing LiteCAD.exe drawing.

As an example, while working as a landscape designer, you may well have started a new drawing, drawn site boundaries and then be looking to insert a previous design into this new job. This command as the name implies, inserts a LiteCAD.exe drawing (the file extension is lcd) into the current drawing space.

The figure below shows a plan view of a water tank being inserted into a drawing for a small courtyard.

Tip: Unlike the BLOCK or BLOCKS commands, there is no opportunity to scale or change the rotation angle of the entities being imported. Again, unlike a block, all entities are exploded on entry using this option.
