Move group & export to dxf in Python

Hi all,

I'm trying to make a script for moving and exporting a group of objects but I get stuck. I did a few tutorials on rhino python but am not completely common with it.

What I want to do for every group is move (copy) it with the lower left corner to the zero point, export it to a folder I can choose and delete afterwards so that I still have the original group in it's original place but the dxf is exported at the zero point. The layers with it's colors should be maintained in the dxf.

When I try moving I already get stuck because it moves every object separately and not as a group.

This is what I have so far:

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
import dxfwrite

objcts = rs.GetObjects("Select objects")

zeropoint = [0,0,0]

for x in objcts:
bb = rs.BoundingBox(x)
bb1 = bb[0]
mvvec = rs.VectorCreate(zeropoint, bb1)
rs.MoveObject(x, mvvec)

Any help would be highly appreciated, thanks!
