Move from Center / Copy from Center

This tool allows you to move or copy objects by automatically using their geometric center as the base point.

Efficiency

Instead of manually calculating or snapping to the center of a complex shape (like an H-Beam), this tool automatically detects the center based on a bounding box　selection.

Automation

It temporarily handles Object Snaps during the operation and restores them afterward.

Compatibility

This is a dedicated Cadopilar Lisp tool and works only within Cadopilar.

The tool calculates the center of this　selection area as the "Base Point".

The object is moved or copied with its center aligned to the destination.

1. 1.Type mcen (to move) or ccen (to copy) in the command line and press Enter.
2. 2.Click the Bottom-Left Corner of the area surrounding the object.
3. 3.Click the Top-Right Corner of the area.
4. 4.Click the Destination Point where you want to place the object.
