A

Command Line: Select Object to MOVE

In the drawing Space: Select object A (Fig.3)
C

Command Line: Specify the basepoint or displacement:

TO

TYPE 0,0,100 / Enter/ Enter

The value of X = 0, Y = 0 and Z = 100 since moving the object
Upward See the position of coordinates Z direction
U
A

Command: Select FILLET in Modify Tab

C

Command: ROTATE
TO

Click rotate from modify panel

Command Line: Select object to rotate
U

In drawing space: Select object / enter

A

Command Line: Specify Basepoint

In drawing space: Click center part of object / rotate to desired position ( Figure 10)
F
LF

Command: MOVE (Before moving the object turn off ON SNAP keys and turn on
ORTHOGRAPHIC KEY
Click move in modify panel
Command Line: Select object to move
In drawing space: Click the object / enter
Command Line: Specify basepoint or displacement: TYPE -100, 175, 0/ enter/ enter (Figure 11)

Note: Movement of the object should be in FRONT View since moving the object toward Left
side the value of X should be negative (-), for Y value it is upward therefore it should be
positive, the value of Z is zero since moving is in FRONT VIEW.
