Select objects: Use the CPolygon or Crossing object selection method
AutoCAD LT stretches arcs, elliptical arcs, lines, polyline segments, 2D solids, rays, and splines that cross the selection window. The STRETCH command also moves vertices of 2D solids that lie inside the window and leaves those outside unchanged. Polylines are handled segment by segment, as if they were primitive lines or arcs. STRETCH does not modify polyline width, tangent, or curve-fitting information.
Any objects that are entirely within the window or polygon are moved, as if you were using the MOVE command.
Base point or displacement:
Specify a point (3) or press ENTER
Second point of displacement:
Specify a point (4) or press ENTER
If you enter a second point, the objects are stretched the distance from the base point to the second point. If you press ENTER instead of specifying a second point of displacement prompt, STRETCH treats the first point as the X,Y displacement value.
