Chris MacDonald Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Move (snap) that edge to the outer edge on the left, then type in the distance you want to move it along the x axis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustafisufi Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 yes i actually do that with using the "absolute mode transform type in " and writing the dimension but i was wondering isn't there any easy way doing that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris MacDonald Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 So you want to move it, accurately, but without typing in dimensions? You could try turning on grid snaps and snapping to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustafisufi Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 no i want to write dimensions and movin in accurate way, but not using that way because sometimes i need that too often. is there a way using the reference coordinate system doing that?
