To Mitre Sections or GENSECS with a Panel
A section or GENSEC may be mitred with a panel such that the start or end direction of the section or GENSEC is modified to the plane of the panel. The section or GENSEC must intersect the panel within the boundary of its loop otherwise the mitring operation is abandoned.
On the SECTIONS tab, in the Tools group, click Mitre Ends the user is prompted to ‘Pick first element to mitre.<ESC> to exit:’.
When the first element is picked the prompt changes to ‘Pick second element to mitre.<ESC> to exit:’.
Picking a valid combination of panel and section/GENSEC displays aid lines on the panel from the section/GENSEC, which extend along the Justification Line and a confirmation prompt.
Click Yes to mitre the section/GENSEC to the panel, or click No to abandon the mitring operation.
