Hi @Anonymous,

and welcome to the community 

From what I can see on this screenshot you just forgot to pick a basepoint in order to move/copy. The coordinate showing up here is the last point that what picked.

So, select objects, pick basepoint, enter displacement.

Maybe this little video makes it clearer.

If I am mistaken, please upload a screencast and show your steps.

Regards

Yes, yes - these stupid mice  Never do what they are supposed to...

Happy that you figured it out 

Now basically my post is the answer, because you actually did not pick the basepoint due to the uncontrolled double click of your mouse.

And your post is the answer, too, because this is your experience and most important, this is what other readers can benefit from.

Thank you and have fun

Hi there

I have a problem moving/copying only one certain annotation.  I type in the copy command, click on the base point, but then when i enter the displacement or try to click on a snap, it would displace itself to another location.  I think it does twice the distance in the same direction.  Any idea's?

twice the distance, or 2.54x times by chance?
