To Use Grips to Edit Linework in a 2D Elevation

Use this procedure to edit linework in a 2D elevation. You can assign selected linework to fixed display components that determine the display of every elevation that you generate, or you can assign linework to display components that you have defined. After you assign linework to display components, you can change the display properties (visibility, color, layer, lineweight, linetype, and linetype scale) to change the display of lines.

  1. Select the elevation.
  2. Select the Edit Linework grip.

    The Edit In Place tab opens.

  3. Click Edit In Place tabProfile panelZoom To to zoom to the elevation.
  4. Select the linework to edit.
  5. Click Edit In Place tabProfile panelModify Component.
  6. Select the component you want to put the lines on. For example, if you want to make the lines invisible, select Erased Vectors for Linework Component.

    You can also click (Match existing linework), and select linework in the elevation whose display component you want to match.

  7. Click OK.
  8. To finish the linework editing process, click Edit In Place tabEdits panelFinish to save all changes, or click Edit In Place tabEdits panelCancel to discard them and exit the edit-in-place session.
