Stretching Objects

This function is used to stretch objects. You can select the objects to be stretched by limiting an area either with two points or with a polyline. The object points inside the area will be moved. Select a reference point which is moved for stretching.

1. Select General Object Functions > Stretch.
2. Select the limitation method from the contextual toolbar. If necessary, you can zoom in the drawing or model while you are limiting the area.
   • Select elements inside window: Select the bottom left and top right corner points of the area.
   • Select elements inside polyline: Select line points.
3. Select the area limiting the points to be moved.
4. Edit the selections, if necessary.
5. Select Confirm.
6. Select a reference point.
7. Select the new location by clicking or type the offset as coordinates.

Note

• If a detailed representation has been selected for the structure by expanding the layers, the relative positions of the edges will not remain in horizontal stretching.
• If the area to be stretched includes sloping ceilings or roof slopes, you can select whether the edge of the structure is stretched in the horizontal direction or in the sloping direction. Select either of the following:
  • In the direction of the slope (pitch remains unchanged)

    

    d = Offset

  • Horizontally (pitch changes)

    

    d = Offset
