Neither of the previous two sets of suggestions works for my drawing, which consists of almost seventy discrete objects; plus another drawing also in the works, and three candidate vendors waiting for updated files ...

I appears that what I will have to do is create Tab-A, save it in my Blocks folder; close it; close LibreCAD; reopen LibreCAD, create another tab, rotate that new another position, save that under a new name, etc, etc. until I have eight such tabs. Then I should be able to import each tab, apply it as many times as needed, save the main drawing under a new name, proceed to Tab-B, etc., etc. with as many overlooked positions as remain to fill in until every object has a tab and they all stay put.

If "Rotate" were a separate menu item, this might be easier, but that is for a later version. The developers probably had an entirely different application in mind when they wrote this code, and I cannot fault them for that.

Best regards,
