it saved me hours of work, thank you.

[@mohammedisam6883]

For easier procedure Copy and paste this code in the command line:
(command "MOVE" (ssget "x") "" "0,0,0" "0,0,1e99")
(command "MOVE" (ssget "p") "" "0,0,0" "0,0,-1e99")

[@torodatruth]

hey i tried this and lost EVERYTHING within the model space. (this happened on 2nd move command using 0,0,1e99)... seems like the lines are SOOO TINY that they can't be selected or scaled up or anything. Closed the dwg hoping it was a CAD issue that would resolve itself when re-opening the drawing but it didn't work.... now i'm staring at a blank model space lost for words... (already tried to recover the back up dwg but it had updated upon closing the dwg and re-opening it.) #fuked

[@rizkygunawan5986]

Me too, after I do the "zoom all" everything was gone

After selecting all objects after selecting MOVE, what should I press to insert in the figure (as video 0:57-0:59 shown)?

[@architecturetopics]

Just take the move tool , select a point ( to hold the drawing from it a corner maybe ) then insert the numbers , lock axes by pressing comma ( , )

[@lorainediosto1582]

@@architecturetopics i did all the commands but when i make into isometric i cannot find the plans in the work space.

[@architecturetopics]

@@lorainediosto1582 pressing Z enter then A enter might solve this for you , you can also switch back to top view and/or select every thing in the preview window with your LMB and Ctrl +C then open new autocad file and past it , hope this solve it.

When am applying this my drawing got hidden..

[@JACKLOPW]

What did you do, same problem here

[@kushbhatia3757]

move the drawing in top view
the drawing will disappear after the first move at coordinates: 0,0,1e99
then again enter the move command but to select the hidden objects hit P for previous selection and enter
all the previous objects will be selected then again enter the coordinates: 0,0,-1e99
remember you must do all this in top view only

[@szekaygoh9943]

what is ur shortcut key , type second number and third number

Why does the 🔒 part that i should enter 0-0-0 and 0-0-1e99 doesnt appear?

I think you should press numberbad comma ( . ) after the number to lock it.

Hi, I did this and it worked. But now everytime I move an object it disappears and moves the specified distance from the origin point. Help please.

If you have a problem seeing the drawing after applying this method , try copy it to a new AutoCAD file ,also read this comment it might helped
