Moving Vertices

Vertices of the Opening Section boundary, Ground Surface, or Truncation Surface can be moved with the Move Vertices option, which is available on the toolbar, the Edit sub-menu of the Boundaries menu, or as a right-click option for individual vertices. A move can be defined in several different ways, using graphical and/or keyboard (prompt line) entry:

• By entering two points defining the move.
• By a relative move
• By a distance and angle
• By entering the new point directly (right-click option only)

To move one or more vertices:

1. First, make sure the Opening Section view is selected.
2. Select Move Vertices from the toolbar, the Edit sub-menu of the Boundaries menu, or the right-click menu.
3. Select the vertices you wish to move. You can select individual vertices by clicking on them with the left mouse button or multiple vertices by drawing a window around them (click and hold the left mouse button and drag to create a window).
4. When you are finished selecting, press ENTER or right-click and select Done .
5. You will then be prompted to enter the information defining the move. This can be done in several different ways:
   • Enter two points defining the move
   • Relative Move
   • Distance and Angle
6. After you have entered the move information, all of the vertices selected in Step 3 will be translated from their original positions according to the move you have defined.

It is suggested that the user experiment with these options to become familiar with the many different editing capabilities of UnWedge.

Right-Click Shortcut for Individual Vertices

The Move Vertices option is also available as a right-click shortcut for individual vertices:

1. Locate the cursor over a vertex that you wish to move.
2. Click the right mouse button, and the vertex will be "selected".
3. A popup menu will appear, from which you can select various Move options:
   • Move To
   • Relative Move
   • Distance and Angle
