Select object:
Specify base point or [Displacement] \<Displacement>:
Specify second point or
\<use first point as displacement>:
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.
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.
