To Change the Angle Dimensions of an Elevation

Use this procedure to change the angle of the sides of the building elevation boundary. You can change the angle dimensions before or after you create a connected elevation. If you change the angles after creating the elevation, you need to update the elevation to show the changes.

  1. Double-click the elevation line you want to change.
  2. On the Properties palette, expand Basic Component Dimensions.
  3. Specify values for Angle 1 and Angle 2.

    These values define the angles of the two sides from the elevation line to create the elevation box. The apex of Angle 1 is the start point of the elevation line. The apex of Angle 2 is the endpoint of the elevation line. Values for these angles must be between 0 and 90 degrees.
