The SetPt command moves selected points and control points of objects to a specified location in the x, y, and/or z directions.
If the entire objects such as curves or surfaces are selected without showing control points, SetPt will move all of the objects’ control points to that location. This may result in a flattening or distortion of the object.
This command is often used to accurately change the position of points and control points. It is also a fast way to be sure that a set of planar curves are all in the same plane.
Select objects.
In the Set Points dialog box, click the check boxes for the coordinates.
Pick a location to match.
The selected objects will line up with the set point in the direction(s) you chose.
To move in one direction, enable the checkbox only.
Right-click on a checkbox to enable the checkbox and clear all the others.
When repeating the SetPt command with the same settings, right-click the mouse button, press Enter, or press the space bar to accept the current settings.
When block instances are selected, the block instances are aligned with their insertion points
-Set X/Set Y/Set Z: Aligns objets in the x, y, and z directions.
-Align to World/Align to CPlane: Align with the world or construction plane coordinates.
-Copy: Specifies whether or not the objects are copied.
A plus sign 
appears at the cursor when copy mode is on.
Copy=Yes supports History recording.
The RememberCopyOptions command determines whether the selected option is used as the default.
