How to move object or group of curves to a point?

Hi I have a simple question regarding the issue of how I can copy/move an object say like a shape I made (from a set of commands in grasshopper) or a group of curves (from a set of commands in grasshopper) to a specific point? I am aware of options such as offset and move but I am not sure they fulfill what I am achieving for. The only method I could think of is to move the objects via "move" command through X&Y vectors or XYZ vectors separately with respect to the distances from say point x of object to point x of designated point, point y of object to point y of designated point, and etc. Is this the only way?

Hey June-Hao,

You don't know it but 3 years later you also saved my life!

Thank you! :)

Adeline,
Is this what you intend to achieve?

Hello

I came across this post while I was trying to solve my own problem. Although this one is similar, but not quite exactly like mine. So here is what I'm trying to do:

I have a geometry (not a primitive one, but a one created after multiple operations). Now I want to copy this geometry on to some points. So there will be n-number of geometries located at those n-number of points. I have achieved this by creating n-number of vectors as input for my 'move' component.

It achieves the purpose, but is not a neat solution. Any suggestions on how that can be done more effectively?

Thanks

I just realized that the 'Orient' component does the same thing. Problem solved!
