Move Vertices

To move vertices to a new location:

1. Select Move Vertices from the toolbar or the Edit sub-menu of the Boundaries menu.
2. 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).
3. When you are finished selecting, press Enter or right-click and select Done Selection.
4. You will then be prompted to enter two points defining the move. You can enter the points graphically with the mouse, or with the keyboard in the prompt line.
5. After the second point is entered, all of the vertices selected in Step 2 will be translated from their original positions according to the vector defined by the two points.

Tips

• The two points defining the move can be anywhere in the x-y plane, only their relative positions are important.
• If you enter 0 , 0 as the first point defining the move, then you can enter the actual x and y displacement as the second point. For example, if you want to move a vertex 5 meters to the left, enter 0 , 0 as the base point, and –5 , 0 as the second point.
• You may also find it useful to use the snap options (vertex or grid snap), to snap exactly to existing vertices, or grid points, when selecting the base point and / or the second point, defining the move.
