Editing Slabs and Roof Slabs
After placing a slab or roof slab object, you can change its style, location, size, shape, slope, edge styles, and other
characteristics. You can miter its edges and trim or extend it using another object as a reference. You can also modify
slabs and roof slabs using other objects as interference conditions or body modifiers.
Depending on the type of editing you want to perform, various methods may be available:
■
After selecting a slab or roof slab, you can click any non-grip point along the perimeter and drag the entire object
to a new location. You can also move the object by clicking a grip, pressing the Space bar, and then moving the
object to the new location and clicking again.
■
You can drag the grips that are displayed on a selected slab/roof slab to reorient it, resize it, or change other physical
characteristics.
■
For grip edits where you are changing a dimension or an angle, the Dynamic Input feature lets you enter a precise
value instead of dragging a grip. (This feature is activated by default; you can toggle it on and off by clicking DYN
on the application status bar. For more information, see “
Dynamic Dimensions ” on page 63.)
■
You can apply the properties of a slab tool to an existing slab or the properties of a roof slab tool to an existing
roof slab.
■
You can change settings on the object’s Properties palette. You can also use the Display tab of the Properties palette
to change the display property settings for a selected object display component in the current display representation.
For more information, see “
Using the Properties Palette to Change Display Properties ” on page 445.
■
You can use editing commands from the object’s context menu.
Using Grips to Edit Slabs/Roof Slabs
Various types of editing grips are displayed for a selected slab or roof slab object. You can drag these grips as needed to
reposition or resize the object, or you can enter precise distance or angle values using the Dynamic Input feature. When
you select a grip that has multiple functions, you can cycle among them by pressing
Ctrl
.
The types of editing grips available for a selected slab or roof slab depend on the view direction. As shown in the
following illustrations, Edge, Edge Overhang, Vertex, and Pivot Point grips are displayed in both plan and
three-dimensional (3D) isometric views. Angle, Vertical Offset, Horizontal Offset, and Thickness grips are available only
in 3D isometric views.
