Moving a Line
While in Select mode , you can move a line in a direction normal to its slope. The length and slope of the line remain unchanged. (To modify the length or slope of a line, you can resize the line by moving a node of the line.)
Note: You can also use the Copy/Move & Rotate function to do this.
Move a line in a normal direction
-
Click the Select option
from the Sketcher toolbar. Or press exit until you are in Select mode.
The cursor changes to a black pointer .
-
Click on a line, and hold.
The line changes from blue to bright green.
-
Drag the line to its required position.
-
Release the mouse button to define the line's new position.
All constraints with other entities remain. For example, if you are moving a line that is normal to another line, both lines will move to maintain the constraint.
Note: You can break a line's constraints with all other entities by double-clicking at step 2, instead of clicking.
