After placing a slab or roof slab object, you can change its style, location, size, shape, slope, edge styles, and other characteristics. You can miter its edges and trim or extend it using another object as a reference. You can also modify slabs and roof slabs using other objects as interference conditions or body modifiers.
Depending on the type of editing you want to perform, various methods may be available:
- After selecting a slab or roof slab, you can click any non-grip point along the perimeter and drag the entire object to a new location. You can also move the object by clicking a grip, pressing the Space bar, and then moving the object to the new location and clicking again.
- You can drag the grips that are displayed on a selected slab or roof slab to reorient it, resize it, or change other physical characteristics.
- For grip edits where you are changing a dimension or an angle, the Dynamic Input feature lets you enter a precise value instead of dragging a grip. (This feature is activated by default; you can toggle it on and off by clicking DYN on the application status bar.)
- You can apply the properties of a slab tool to an existing slab or the properties of a roof slab tool to an existing roof slab.
- You can change settings on the object’s Properties palette. You can also use the Display tab of the Properties palette to change the display property settings for a selected object display component in the current display representation.
- You can use editing commands from the object’s contextual ribbon tab.
