Dear Sanjay Jamalpur,

In BC7 icadbrx.lsp contains this function:

; function to simulate 'from' option .
; This should be a function, calling command 'c:from' transparently won't work
; it can be called with an accellerator(menu>customize>accelerator tab>new accelerator)
; or by typing (from) on the commandline during a command.
(defun from ( )
 (setvar "LASTPOINT" (getpoint "\nBase point: "))
 ;enter an offset point with @ or using distance in direction of cursor
 (getpoint "\nto point: "(getvar "LASTPOINT"))
)

This works just fine.

Regards, Roy.

For your information: the FROM snap option will be added in the coming months.
