At a prompt for locating a point, enter from, and then enter a temporary
reference or base point from which you can specify an offset to locate the next
point. Enter the offset location from this base point as a relative coordinate,
or use
direct distance entry.
NOTE You cannot use this method during dragging in commands such as MOVE
and COPY. Specifying an absolute coordinate, either by keyboard entry or with a
pointing device, cancels the FROM command.
MTP (Command Modifier)
Quick Reference

Locates the midpoint between two points.
Command entry: At a prompt to locate a point, enter mtp
The midpoint between two points (MTP) command modifier can be used with
running object snaps or object snap overrides. (OSNAP command)
At any Command prompt to locate a point, enter mtp or m2p.
First point of mid: Specify a point
Second point of mid: Specify a second point
TRACKING (Command Modifier)
