cannot 'move' object to origin? 0,0,0 ??

[robotgrass]

Hello, I'm working in Autocad 2008.Mechanical, and I'm sure i must be loosing it.
Why can't i move my object from its present location to the origin 0,0,0?

I'm using MOVE command/ choosing my object/ FROM the bottom left corner of my object/ TO 0,0,0 (Second point of displacement)/ Enter...... And then...nothing moves??

ZOINKS! It must be something obvious ; )

Thanks.

It has to do with absolute and relative coordinates. With dynamic input on, AutoCAD defaults to the relative coordinates. If you want to use absolute coordinates, you can either type a # before 0,0,0; or you can change this under drafting settings, dynamic input tab, pointer input settings

also you can check with "dview"


;RESET DE DVIEW
(defun c:dvi()
(command "dview" "l" "" "po" "0,0,0" "0,0,1" "x")
(princ)
(command "zoom" "e")
)
