You can relocate an elevation by changing the coordinate values of its insertion point. The elevation also has an orientation with respect to the WCS or the current UCS. For example, if the top and bottom of the elevation are parallel to the XY plane, its normal is parallel to the Z axis. You can change the orientation of the elevation by aligning its normal with another axis. You can also rotate the elevation on its plane by changing the rotation angle.

---|---|
relocate the elevation | enter new coordinate values under Insertion Point. |
locate the elevation on the XY plane | make the normal of the elevation parallel to the Z axis: under Normal, enter 1 for Z, and enter 0 for X and Y. |
locate the elevation on the YZ plane | make the normal of the elevation parallel to the X axis: under Normal, enter 1 for X, and enter 0 for Y and Z. |
locate the elevation on the XZ plane | make the normal of the elevation parallel to the Y axis: under Normal, enter 1 for Y, and enter 0 for X and Z. |
change the rotation of the elevation | enter a new value for Rotation Angle. |
