# MINSERT Command [GstarCAD 2022](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Index.md) → [Commands](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/(Commands).md) → [M](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/M/(M).md) ## Function Description: This command is used to insert multiple instances of a block in a rectangular array. Before specifying the position of the insertion point, options preset the scale and rotated angle of a block. Presetting is useful for dragging a block using a scale factor and a rotation rather than 1 or 0\. Users can specify a distance for the scale options or an angle for rotation. Blocks inserted using the MINSERT command can not be exploded. You can not use the MINSERT command with annotative blocks. ## Command Access: > **Icon:** / > **Menu:** / > **Ribbon:** / > **Toolbar:** / > **Command:** MINSERT > **Alias:** / ## Command Prompts: Enter block name or \[?\] \<1\>: ## Enter block name Enter the name of the block to be arrayed.
