Hi.

 

I can not move any object to the 0,0,0 point in model space.

 

Example: If I draw a simple circle somewhere on the xy plane other than at 0,0,0 (obviously), then I try to move that circle to the 0,0,0 point by snapping to that circle's center (as the first source point) and then enter 0,0,0 for the destination, that object does not move at all. And it doesn't have to be only a circle type object it can be anything and still they won't budge.

 

Advice?

 

Thanks in advance.

To enter absolute coordinates for the second point in MOVE, instead of 0,0,0, type:

#0,0,0

It always works.

 

Overrides in AutoCAD are as follows-

To enter absolute coordinates

#x,y,z
To enter relative coordinates:
@x,y,z
To enter absolute coordinates relative to the World Coordinate System (WCS):
*x,y,z

 

You can also change the DYNPICOORDS system variable in the file
