.
3 Click the selected object to create the first point. This is the start point
from which the repositioning will be calculated.
4 Click the second point in the scene. This is the point where the object
will be moved to. There is now a line connecting the start point and the
end point in the Scene View.
5 If you want to be able to move the object several times, create more
points in the scene.
NOTE You can only select a point on another object in the scene. Selecting
a point in 'space' is not a valid option. To reposition an object into 'space',
you can either use a translation gizmo or, if you know the distance by which
the object is to be moved, by overriding its transform.
6 Slide out the Measure panel, and click Transform Selected Items
to move the object to the second point. If you have multiple points
in the scene, each time you click Transform Objects the selected object
is moved to the next point.
