Editing In-Place Massing Families

The tools for editing an in-place mass differ depending on the environment. For example, the shape handles used while editing an in-place mass in the project environment are 2D. However, when you edit the in-place mass in the conceptual design environment, 3D controls allow you to further modify the mass by moving vertices, surfaces, edges, and points.

Use the following procedure to edit an in-place massing family that has been moved to the conceptual design environment from a project.

1. Open a project file.
2. On the ribbon, click Massing & Site tabConceptual Mass panel Show Mass Form and Floors.
3. Select the mass.
   Note: 2D shape handles are available to modify the mass.
4. Click Modify | Mass tabModel panel Edit In-Place. The conceptual design environment opens.
   Note: 3D controls are available to modify the mass.
5. Modify the mass.
