Moving Calculation Points

The Move Calculation Points command moves entire definitions of calculation points (grids, lines, polygons, etc.) from one location to another. Calculations with many points will be replaced with a cube surrounding the selection's extents, in order to facilitate the move. If the selected calculation has related points associated with it, such as glare rating grids, those will be moved as well.

For Example, if you select a grid that has two observer positions (3 grids of points total), all 3 grids will be moved along with the observer points.

  1. From the Modify menu choose Calculations -Move, or from the Calculations toolbar select image\calc_button-move_points.jpg.
  2. Select the calculation entity by moving the pickbox cursor over it and clicking the left mouse button.
  3. Locate the base point to move the calculation from and click the left mouse button. (If using relative coordinates, skip this step.)
  4. Drag the calculation to the desired location and left click again.

Note: When doing a relative move in the Z direction, the elevation slice (Z coordinate) does note change, i.e., remains at the current Z coordinate after completing the command.
