Move Multi-line Profile

Use it!

Used to do the following:

Tool SettingEffect
Move

Determines the tool's operation:

  • Workline
    • — Move the identified multi-line's work line without moving its component lines.
  • Component
    • — Move a single component line of the identified multi-line.
To move a multi-line's work line
  1. Select the Move Multi-line Profile tool.

  2. In the Tool Settings window, set Move to Workline.

  3. Identify the multi-line.
    A dashed dynamic line displays. This represents the work line.

  4. Enter a data point to reposition the work line.
    With typical usage, the appearance of the component lines is unchanged. However, if you move the dynamic work line far enough to cause segments to reverse direction it becomes impossible to preserve the appearance of the multi-line. When this occurs, the entire multi-line dynamically displays showing its new configuration. Entering a data point when this occurs modifies the entire multi-line.

To move one of a multi-line's component lines
  1. Select the Move Multi-line Profile tool.

  2. In the Tool Settings window, set Move to Component.

  3. Identify the component line.
    The identified component line dynamically highlights. Should you move the highlighted component line in a manner that affects other components of the multi-line (end caps, for instance), these components also highlight and dynamically change with the identified component line.

  4. Enter a data point to reposition the component line.
