Move

Common Functionality

Moves the selected object(s) to a new position.

Note:

If no grid is associated with multiple moved GENSEC or PANEL elements. The moved elements are positioned under the FRMW or SBFR element of the CE in the model hierarchy. Refer to Section and Panel Storage for further information.

After selecting the object and clicking Move, the Command Prompt is displayed in the graphical view.

Note:

If no object is select you are prompted to select one.

Select Specify base point, Displacement or Copy.

After selecting Specify base point, you are prompted to specify the second point, Base as displacement or Copy.

Selecting second point moves the object to that point, either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. Selecting Base as displacement moves the object the amount specified as the base point. The base point is a point either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. For example if the objects position is (1000,1000,1000) and the base point is specified at (100,200,300) this will be used as the displacement and move the object (100,200,300) making its new position (1100,1200,1300). Selecting Copy creates a copy of the object at the new position either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value and keeps the original object at its current position. Back, moves one step back.

After selecting Displacement, you are prompted to specify the Displacement or Copy.

Selecting Displacement moves the object relative to (0,0,0), either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. Selecting Copy creates a copy of the object relative to (0,0,0) at the new position either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value and keeps the original object at its current position. Back, moves one step back.

After selecting Copy, you are prompted to specify base point or Displacement.

After selecting specify base point, pick a base point, either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. You are then prompted to specify the second point or Base as displacement. Selecting specify the second point moves the object to that point, either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. Selecting Base as displacement moves the object the amount specified as the base point. The base point is a point either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. For example if the objects position is (1000,1000,1000) and the base point is specified at (100,200,300) this will be used as the displacement and move the object (100,200,300) making its new position (1100,1200,1300). After selecting Displacement, you are prompted to specify the Displacement. Selecting Displacement moves the object relative to (0,0,0), either clicked in the 3D graphical view or typed as a value. Back, moves one step back.
