In addition to being displayed by selecting Create Profiles on the Create Lattice Profile window, the Modify Profile window is accessed via the Main Ceiling Grid Tasks window (refer to Create Ceiling Grid).
On the Main Ceiling Grid Tasks window, if the Current Ceiling Grid owns any Lattice Profile elements then the Lattice Profile option under the Modify section on the window becomes active.
-
Selecting Modify > Lattice Profile displays the Modify Profile window with the grid control at the top of the window populated by all of the currently existing lattice profiles.

Right-clicking on a lattice profile in the Select Profile list display a pop-up menu.

Note: When modifying the position of the profile, it should be remembered that the End position is relative to the Start, so that a change to the Start position will also shift the End position. Also Elevation shifts the profile vertically, whilst maintaining its East and North positions.
