When inserting a block, what should be done if the auto-placement feature suggests an incorrect position?

1. Adjust the position manually after insertion.

2. Press the Control key to toggle through the other placement options.

3. Delete the block and try inserting it again.

4. Use the Move command after placing the block.

The correct answer is: Press the Control key to toggle through the other placement options.

When inserting a block in AutoCAD, if the automatic placement feature suggests an incorrect position, toggling through the other placement options can provide immediate alternatives without the need to make additional adjustments after the fact. By pressing the Control key, users can cycle through various pre-defined insertion points for the block. This allows for selecting a more suitable position directly upon insertion, streamlining the workflow and avoiding any unnecessary manual adjustments or deletions of the block. Adjusting the position manually after insertion, deleting the block to reinsert it, or using the Move command afterward can be more time-consuming methods and may disrupt the workflow, whereas toggling through placement options offers an efficient solution right at the point of insertion.
