Extend, move, or rotate grid lines and arcs

You can modify grid lines and arcs in different ways according to your needs. You can stretch, shorten, or rotate grid lines, or move them in a perpendicular direction. As for grid arcs, you can stretch and shorten them, adjust their radius, or move them in any direction. For detailed instructions, see the following paragraphs.

Restriction:

You can only move grid lines and arcs in 2D views.

Stretch, shorten, or rotate a grid line

  1. In a 2D view, select the grid line that you want to modify.

    The end nodes and the center node of the grid line become visible.

  2. Click one of the end nodes.
  3. Click the location where you want to move the node.

    The node moves to its new position.

Move a grid line to a perpendicular direction

  1. In a 2D view, select the grid line that you want to modify.

    The end nodes and the center node of the grid line become visible.

  2. Click the center node.
  3. Click the location where you want to move the node.

    The grid line moves to its new position.

Stretch or shorten a grid arc

  1. In a 2D view, select the grid arc that you want to modify.

    The end nodes of the arc perimeter and the center node of the arc visible.

  2. Click one of the end nodes.
  3. Click the location where you want to move the node.

    The arc stretches or shortens accordingly.

Adjust the radius of a grid arc

  1. In a 2D view, select the grid arc that you want to modify.

    The end and center nodes of the arc perimeter and the center node of the arc visible.

  2. Click the center node of the arc perimeter.
  3. Click the location where you want to move the node.

    The arc radius adjust accordingly.

Move a grid arc

  1. In a 2D view, select the grid arc that you want to modify.

    The end nodes of the arc perimeter and the center node of the arc visible.

  2. Click the center node of the arc.
  3. Click the location where you want to move the node.

    The arc moves to its new location.
