Moving In Front of or Behind Items
The commands described in this section move the Current Element to the intersection with a Reference Plane, a specified distance from the
surface
of a fixed geometric object.
Any p-point on the Current Element may be specified as the positioning datum, although the default is the origin. In no case is the geometry of the Current Element considered. However, the full geometry of the fixed element is taken into account. Although the designer does not need to know the actual distance moved, he must provide a ‘point-to-surface’ dimension.
