3. Drag a point or edge to modify the location or elevation.
   
   Note: If you place the cursor over the element, you can press Tab to pick specific sub elements. Standard selection methods also apply. See Select Multiple Elements.
   • Elevation of the point or edge is displayed when selected. The elevation reported is based on the Elevation Base setting on the Modify Sub elements panel.
   • Dragging a blue arrow moves the point vertically.
4. Click the text control or use the Elevation box on the Modify Sub Elements panel to enter a precise height value for the selected point or edge.

   The value of the height represents the offset from Elevation Base.

   Note: For an edge this means that the center is moved to the specified height, but the relative heights of the 2 ends are maintained.
