Dragging Equipment and Nozzles

Model Reference Manual

This command repositions the current element and constrained network to the specified position. The DRAG command can be followed by any standard Equipment and Civils positioning or moving command.


Examples:
DRAG AT E3000	The current element and constrained network will be dragged to the specified position.
DRAG BY N500 U500	The current element and constrained network will be dragged by the specified amount.
DRAG MOVE E2000	The current element and constrained network will be moved to the specified position.
DRAG MOVE N CLEAR 1000 INF /BUILD10	The current element and constrained network are moved North to the specified clearance in front of element /BUILD10.

Command Syntax:

The full DRAG command syntax is extensive but may be summarised as follows:

>-- DRAG --+-- <absol> --.
           |             |
           ‘-- <relat> --+-->

where:

<absol>

defines any absolute positioning command, e.g. AT, POS, etc.

<relat>

defines any relative positioning command, e.g. BY, MOVE, etc.

The full expanded syntax is given below for reference:
