copy or move command
copy or move command
(OP)
When I try to either move an object using a relative distance ,
lets say a line it is ok if I want ot move it 2.5 unit but below that nothing happens. is it something in my settings?
Iam sure it will be a simple explanation but it has got me.
Thanks in advance

RE: copy or move command
Ortho needs to be on (If the move is at right angles)...type in M and hit enter, pick the line to be moved...asks for base point...pick anywhere near the line to be moved...drag in the direction you want the line to go then type in 2.5 then hit enter...
Hope this helps...

example type in 1.5 then hit enter it does nothing.
Note:

Thanks for you quick reply Jim
RE: copy or move command
Sorry didn't read your question right... can you get the MOVE command to work right if you type in .MOVE
(notice the period in front of the MOVE)

Sounds like you snaps (and/ or) grid are on ...
OR your snap (and/ or) grid might be set to 2.5 or better.

.
This might cause nothing to move below that number.
Look at that ...

Thanks for all your help closed "Osnap", by pressing F3 and that worked.
