Move/ Copy command moving from origin instead of snap point coordinate

Anonymous — Tue, 08 Oct 2019 12:47:53 GMT

Hi,

Every time I go to copy or move something and press enter (in this case space bar), the snap point is moved relative to the origin point as opposed to being moved relative to the original point's co ordinates. Can anyone help as it appears to be a setting that comes on especially when I use the space bar to enter a command?

Thanks

Change your DESETTINGS as explained here https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Switching-between-absolute-and-relative-coordinates-for-pointer-input.html

You could also just take deliberate control yourself with...
@x,y is for relative
#x,y is for absolute
