Only reference lines move while moving any object in 3D, Elevation and Section!

Hi all, I'm modeling an existing building using a DWG survey, the project is based in the BIMcloud. I have the surveyed elevation drawings set up in their proper elevations using trace and reference. While moving walls (or any other object) in the elevations, sections or even the 3D view, the wall or the object is staying in it's original place and only the reference line (in blue) and all of it's vertices are relocating to the new location. I tried rebuilding the model nothing changed. This is my first time experiencing such a problem. Please check the picture to further understand what is happening. Hoping to find a solution soon. Thanks.

This may be because you are drawing at a far distance from archicad's origin point. When you import a dwg file, it is placed at its own origin point (usually). When this point is far from the archicad origin point, you get this kind of discrepancy.
