Move (Shift)

On the Wireframe tab, in the Editing group: Click Move (Shift) to move a wireframe a specified distance in a specified direction.

Input Wireframe

Specify the type and name of the Input wireframe.

Shift Position By

The wireframe will be moved by the offset distance specified for each direction.

If you are moving between plane grid coordinate systems, refer to the Plane Grid Conversion function which has a Convert Wireframe feature. In this case, you must know the coordinates of two points in both grid systems in order to calculate the appropriate offsets.

Output Wireframe

Select the Overwrite input wireframe option if you want the result of the process to be applied to the Input wireframe/s.

If the Overwrite input wireframe option is selected for a wireframe Set, all input wireframes are overwritten with their cleaned counterparts. If the option is not selected, the output Name is disabled and new wireframes are created for the output Type with the same name as their inputs.

If the Overwrite input wireframe is not selected for a Single wireframe, a cleaned output wireframe will be created and the input wireframe will not be overwritten.

If the option is not selected for a Single wireframe and an ad hoc Set is specified, new wireframes are created in the output Type. Names for these are provided by the output Name field, followed by an underscore “_” and the name of the input wireframe from which they came.

Output

Type and Name

Specify the type and name of the Output wireframe.

Colour

Specify a default display colour for the Output wireframe.

Colour

Double click (F3) to select the Colour that will be used to display the wireframe.

Attributes

Click the Attributes button to set Wireframe Attributes for the wireframe output.

User-defined attributes may be mapped against the fields in the Input file. It is also possible to specify a default value for each attribute. Default values are used when a corresponding value in the Input file is either missing or is not mapped.

Auto load

Select this option to load the generated output in Vizex. The default draw style for an auto-loaded wireframe is 3D Shaded.

Forms

Click the Forms button to select and open a saved form set, or if a form set has been loaded, save the current form set.

Run

Finally, click Run to begin the process.
