danellis Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 A work-around rather than a solution, but: make sure PELLIPSE is set to 1 and trace over the ellipse (this creates an ellipse formed from polylines). Break this new polyline at your starting point (i.e. where the object you want to move is) Use the lengthen command to set the length of your ellipse section to the distance you want to move, and use this as a guide for the new object position. dJE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
