Keywords:

MOVE CLEARANCE INFRONT BEHIND ONTOP UNDER

Description:

This command takes into account the geometry of both the Current and Referenced elements. In this way a minimum clearance can be specified between two Design items (for example, to ensure that a walkway is a sufficient distance away from a heated autoclave).

Example:

MOVE E CLEARANCE 1000 BEH /WALL10

The Current Element is moved East until its entire volume is 1000 clear of the side of /WALL10 (see ).

MOVE D CLEARANCE ONTO /BEAM

The Current Element is moved down until it has a zero clearance above the element /BEAM (see ).
