You can offset an existing figure by a specified distance. A positive value indicates an offset to the right; a negative value indicates an offset to the left.
- In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click a named network
Survey Command Window. - At the Command line, enter:
OFFSET [figure] [distance]
Note: Numeric figure names should not start with the number zero. For example, a figure name of 235 is acceptable but 0235 is not.
