Summary

You can view your entire drawing or select one or more objects before starting the command.

Selecting one of more objects before starting this command limits the display to those objects only.

While the command is active, right-click to display additional options from a shortcut menu.

Click in a drawing area and drag the pointing device in any direction to start the objects moving in the direction that you're dragging. Release the button on the pointing device and the objects continue their orbit in the direction that you specified. The speed set for the cursor movement determines the speed at which the objects spin.

You can change the direction of the continuous orbit by clicking and dragging again. You can also change the display of the continuous orbit by right-clicking in the drawing area and choosing an option from the shortcut menu. For example, you can choose Visual Aids Grid to add a grid to the view without exiting Continuous Orbit.
