# MOVE Command [GstarCAD 2022](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Index.md) → [Commands](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/(Commands).md) → [M](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/M/(M).md) ## Function Description: This command is used to move objects by a specified distance along a specified direction. Users can use coordinates, grid snaps, object snaps and other tools to move objects accurately. ## Command Access: > **Icon:** >  > **Menu:** Modify \> Move > **Ribbon:** Home \> Modify \> Move > **Toolbar:** Modify \> Move > **Command:** MOVE > **Alias:** M ## Command Prompts: Select object: Specify base point or \[Displacement\] \<Displacement\>: Specify second point or \<use first point as displacement\>: ## Specify base point/Specify second point The specified two points define a vector that determines moving direction and distance. If pressing Enter under the prompt of Specify second point, the objects are moved according to the coordinates of the base point. For example, if the base point is set to (5, 9), press Enter under the prompt of Specify second point, the selected objects move 5 unit along the X axis direction and 9 units along the Y axis direction. ## **Displacement** The two points you specify define a vector that indicates how far from the original the copied objects are to be placed and in what direction. Specifies a relative moving distance and direction.
