Line Editor dialog

Tip: Change the line selection when the dialog is displayed by clicking a different line. Edit the newly selected line in the normal way.

Note: The Line Editor dialog is also used to edit multiple lines, with a number of slight differences.

Name — Displays the name of the selected line. You may also use it to edit the name.

Reverse — Click this button to reverse the line so that the start coordinates become the end coordinates and the end coordinates the start.

Workspace — Enables you edit the line in world, workplane, or relative workspace.

Note: The relative workspace has its origin at the start of the line and its axes aligned with the current workspace.

Length — Enter the length of the line. If you edit the existing length, the end of the line moves to increase or decrease the length.

Start — Edits the start coordinates of the line.

End — Edits the end coordinates of the line.

Angle — The angle of line is defined in terms of apparent and elevation angles on the selected plane.

— Use the plane selector to change the selected plane.

Apparent — The apparent angle is measured between the projection of the line onto the selected plane and an axis of the plane . The axis used is the X axis if the selected plane is XY, Y if it is YZ and Z if it is ZX.

Elevation — The elevation angle is measured between the line and the projection of the line onto the selected plane .

OK — Saves our changes and closes the dialog.

Cancel — Closes the dialog without saving your changes.
