Keywords:
POSITION PLANE DISTANCE THROUGH FROM TO
Description:
This command differs from the basic options by allowing the reference plane to be specified independently of the constrained centerline. This is particularly relevant for routing sloping lines where a specific Easting or Northing is to be intersected.
|
Example: |
|
|---|---|
|
PLANE X DIST 1000 |
The Component will be placed on the constrained centerline so that its origin is 1000 from the previous Component’s origin in an East/West direction (see ). |
