Because a corridor has a large number of dependencies, it cannot be moved, copied, rotated, nor scaled up or down. However, a corridor surface can be copied. You can then edit the copied surface.
- In the drawing area, click the corridor surface. Right-click and click
. At the command line, you are prompted to specify a base point for the corridor surface.
- Click an insertion point in the drawing area.
The corridor surface is pasted in the drawing and added as a new surface to the Surfaces collection in the Prospector tree.
- To edit the name of the corridor surface, right-click the surface in the Prospector tree. Click .
The Surface Properties dialog box is displayed with the Information tab active. The Name field contains the name of the copied corridor, which is, by default, “ <surface-name> (1).”
Note: When a corridor surface is copied, a naming convention is used. For example if the original corridor surface is named ‘Corridor - Datum’, the new surface is named ‘Corridor - Datum (1)’. If the ‘Corridor - Datum‘ surface is copied again, the new surface is named ‘Corridor - Datum (2)’. If the ‘Corridor - Datum (1)’ surface is copied, the new surface is named ‘Corridor - Datum (1) (2)’. - Enter a new name in the Name field.
- To specify the description of the corridor surface, enter a new description in the Description field.
- Click Apply to make the changes, or click OK to make the changes and close the Surface Properties dialog box.
