3D Associative Array 
The associative array functionality that is so valuable for 2D documentation is equally useful for 3D 
modeling. Each of the three types of associative arrays—rectangular, polar, and path—include the ability 
to array selected objects in 3D space. Use the Level option to specify the number items in the Z direction 
during or after array creation. 
Whether you create one- or multiple levels of array objects, you can specify an increment value for row 
elevation. When the row elevation increment is set to zero, as it is by default, all rows are created at the 
same elevation. When set to any other value, positive or negative, the elevation of each row is 
incremented by that amount. 
When creating a path array, you can specify whether the arrayed objects should maintain a vertical 
orientation (Z direction) or adjust to remain parallel to the path.
