Move From

Click to specify the starting location of the move vector. If you do not define a starting point, the software assumes that the current location of the object is the starting point.

Move To

Click to specify the ending location of the move vector.

Plane

Activates options for selecting a working plane for the route path. Six options are available:

Plan Plane

Defines the work surface as the XY plane at the depth of the active end. You also can press CTRL+1 to select this option.

Elevation Plane: East-West ( Z Plane: X-Axis)

Defines the work surface as the XZ plane. You also can press CTRL+2 to select this option.

Elevation Plane: North-South ( Z Plane: Y-Axis)

Defines the work surface as the YZ plane. You also can press CTRL+3 to select this option.

Plane by Turn/Branch

Defines the work surface as the plane defined by an existing turn or branch. You select the turn or branch to set the plane. You also can press CTRL+4 to select this option.

Plane by Three Points

Defines the work surface using three points that you define. You also can press CTRL+5 to select this option.

No Plane

Clears any work surfaces. The software does not project points that you place to any plane. You also can press CTRL+6 to select this option.

Run

Displays the name of the cableway. You can select another cableway if necessary.

<New Cableway> displays the New Cableway dialog. Use this option to create a new cableway run.

<Select Graphically> allows you to select an existing run in a graphic view, or the Workspace Explorer.

More displays the Select Cableway dialog. Use this option to select a cableway that is associated with a different electrical system.

Type

Specifies the short code associated with the selected turn. You can replace the existing turn feature with the available turn types displayed on the list. This list displays applicable turn types based on the nominal diameter of the selected object.

Miters

Specifies the number of miters for the turn feature. This option is available only if you select the Miter turn type from the Type list.

Angle Lock

Locks or unlocks the angle. Locking the corresponding angle value creates a constraint along which the selected turn angle can be moved.

Angle 2

Specifies the angle of the turn feature located at the end of one associated leg. This option is disabled if there is no turn feature located at the end of the leg. Although this value can be changed, the location of the corresponding turn cannot. Modification of this value repositions the selected turn until the specified angle is achieved.

Angle 1

Specifies the angle of the turn that you are editing. Modification of this value repositions the selected turn until the specified angle is achieved.

Angle 3

Specifies the angle of the turn feature located at the end of one associated leg. This option is disabled if there is no turn feature located at the end of the leg. Although this value can be changed, the location of the corresponding turn cannot. Modification of this value repositions the selected turn until the specified angle is achieved.

Offset

Controls the SmartSketch offset constraint. Type a distance to offset the cableway. Select <Disabled> if you do not want to use the offset. Select Set Offset Reference to define a reference point. See Set Offset Reference Dialog (Cableway).
