Now let's place our open office cubicles. Here in our blocks we're looking for cubicle 6-6. Bring that right in and let's click and place it right in the middle of our open office for now.
Click. Okay, now we'll select it and we'll do M for move and we want to grab this bottom left corner of that cubicle. Click one time.
And then we want to click one time on the midpoint of this exterior wall. Click. Now we'll see it's centered, at least the left side of this cubicle is centered in the room.
Now let's move it up. And how far do we want to move it from this wall? I think a good rule of thumb is about four feet. So let's go up exactly four feet.
Enter. All right, so there's one cubicle. And here's the fun part about cubicles.
Once you have one, the rest go really fast. Let's select one cubicle and type in mirror. M-I-R-R-O-R.
Enter. And we'll click that bottom left corner again. Click and go straight up with our cursor with ortho turned on and click again and click enter.
Now we have two just that fast. Now we will select both and type in mirror. M-I-R-R-O-R.
Enter. And now we'll click on the left side. Click and go straight across with our cursor.
Click again and enter. And just like that we have filled our open office with cubicles.
