You can create duplicates of objects at a specified distance from the original. You specify the distance and direction by two points, a from point (1) and a to point (2), called the base point and the second point of displacement, respectively. These points can be located anywhere within the drawing.
You can also copy an object using a relative distance by entering coordinate values for the first point and pressing ENTER for the second point of displacement. This instructs AutoCAD LT to use the coordinate values as a relative displacement rather than a base point. The objects you selected are copied to a new location determined by the relative coordinate values you entered.
