3 Enter the displacement in the form of a Cartesian, polar, cylindrical, or
spherical coordinate value. Do not include the @ sign, because a relative
coordinate is assumed.
4 At the prompt for the second point of displacement, press
ENTER.
By entering only one set of coordinate values, you instruct AutoCAD to
use it as a relative displacement rather than a base point. The objects you
select are moved to a new location determined by the relative coordinate
values you enter.

MOVE
To move by stretching
1 From the Modify menu, choose Stretch.
2 Select the object by using crossing selection.
The crossing window must include at least one vertex or endpoint. Specify
crossing selection by clicking, moving your pointing device from right to
left, and clicking again.
3 Do one of the following:
■ Specify the base point for the move, and then specify a second point,
the point of displacement.
■ Enter the displacement in the form of a Cartesian, polar, cylindrical, or
spherical coordinate value. Do not include the @ sign, because a rela-
tive coordinate is assumed. At the prompt for the second point of
displacement, press
ENTER.
Any objects with at least one vertex or endpoint included within the cross-
ing selection are stretched. Any objects that are completely within the
crossing selection are moved without being stretched.
