What is the reason if anyone knows.
Is it possible to create an array without it making a block. Is there a setting for this?
THX have a great day!

You can always explode the block?
Hi not2013,
ARRAY commands are for easily creating patterned objects. Since there's an associativity in the array objects, changes are propagated throughout the array by editing the source object.
If you do not want the above behaviour, you can turn off Associativity to create array items as independent objects.
Oh now I see! Yes, it is an option of the command selection list. Thanks for pointing that out to my pointy head.
I do like this new option (coming from 2011 to 2013) as it gives you the option to turn it on or off with each array command in a quick no nonsense manner.
FYI associativity stays off for the next array command and the one after until you turn it back on when you need it again.
Thanks again!
PS I actually exceeded the max object creation (over 100,000 entities) in the array command for the 1st time this week. 1st used array in Autocad Rel 11 in 1989 during my advanced Autocad class.
Thanks, that is what I was doing, as I didn't see the option in the command list. I now find it easier to change the associativity in the array command before selecting entities.
Have a great day!
