SEANT Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Try: With Osnaps End & Center set, start the Move command. At the Specify base point or [Displacement] : prompt select the bottom center of the cylinder. At Specify second point or : prompt type .XY Then @ Then select any top corner of the box.

SEANT Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 You’re welcome. Incidentally, if further background on this process is needed search the help files for “Point Filters” or “Coordinate Filters”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocturne00 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 "how can I move the bottom face of the cylider on z axis and put it on the top face of the box?" was your actual question. You may want to reiterate the question in the dwg file to get more precise results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
