In addition to being displayed on selecting Create Hangers on the Create Hangers window, the Modify Hangers window is accessed from the Ceiling Support Tasks window.
-
On the main Ceiling Support Tasks window (refer to Ceiling Supports and Hangers), if the current Ceiling Grid owns any Hanger elements then selecting Modify > Hangers displays the Modify Hangers window with the Select Hanger List Control populated.

Note: From the Select Hanger pane, if the user wants to delete a Hanger, right click on a hanger and select Delete Selected Hanger.
The Modify Hangers window allows the user to select a particular Hanger from the List Control which populates the fields at the bottom of the window. The user can then make changes to the Hanger’s Name, Height and Distance.
