Inclined, measure height to bottom

This function is used to move the selected plane such that the plane becomes inclined and its bottom surface is positioned at the defined elevation. The defined elevation is the elevation of the bottom surface of the packed basic volume. The edge lines remain as they were from the top projection of the plane, only the pitch and plane elevation are changed.

When the plane is selected in the drawing window, the pitch of the plane and the elevation of the top surface are defined by selecting a reference plane using four points. The points are selected one by one. An elevation is typed for each point in a text box. The elevation is typed in relation to the floor base height. The first three points define the pitch of the plane, which means that the elevation of the fourth point is insignificant.

In the model window, the pitch of the plane and the elevation of the top surface are defined by selecting the four points on the reference plane with the cursor or generic point snap functions. Wire frame can be selected as the initial method of representation of the model, in which case it is easier to select points of the model.

1. Select the structure to be moved.
2. Do one of the following:
   • In the 2D drawing: select 4 points and type their elevation.
   • In the 3D model: select 4 points.
