Select Top Edge

Select the reference plane or edge that defines the top elevation of the ladder. If this edge is deleted after the ladder has been placed, the software will put the ladder on the To Do List.

Select Bottom Plane

Select the reference plane that defines the bottom elevation of the ladder. This plane must be lower than the top edge that you selected. The reference plane can be flat or sloped up to 45 degrees. If this plane is deleted after the ladder has been placed, the software will put the ladder on the To Do List.
