I want to move a set of objects towards a central point.
Think moving objects that are outlining a circle towards the middle.
I know you can do this through the bounding box, but that results in the objects being resized and I don't want them resized.

The effect that I have in mind is like the Symbol Scruncher tool except that I want to move the objects at a specific distance.

I also won't be able to use the Scruncher because I didn't spray my symbols randomly.

How about bounding box and then offset path to restore the size?

This might work:

Turn each object independently into a symbol.
Select them all (the bounding box
Re-size them all together so they are closer to the center
point (as you indicated, each object will get re-sized)
With all the symbols still selected, right click and select "Reset Transformation". The symbols will recover their original size but stay in the new spot.

If you wish to move a group of all objects to a center pint, without resizing them, you'll have to do it manually or in specific groups (left, top objects - right, bottom objects, etc).

There is no method to concentrate objects around a given point without resizing.

Scripting may be able to do this. But I'm not certain.
