When rooms are moved, the original room definition is accessed and relocated. This means that if any room labels have been moved away from their original location, they will be reinserted in their original location once the room is moved. To move rooms in a job file, select the desired room, the starting point and endpoint. The two points define a displacement vector that indicates the distance the room will to be moved and its relative direction. Only one room can be moved at a time.
- From the Modify
menu select Room-Move, or from
the Rooms/Objects toolbar select
. - Select the room to be moved.
- Select the point to move from by clicking on it with the left mouse button. Usually a corner of the room makes a good selection point. (If using relative coordinates, skip this step.)
- Drag the cursor to the new room location point and left click again. As the cursor moves, the room will also move accordingly.
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.
