Pad elevation in OIP


Recommended Posts

Context:

z value of Site Model Pad objects can be adjusted via OIP, or with several drawing tools/commands: Drag (eg in a side view, screen plane), Move by Points, Move 2d & Move 3d.

Problem:

If the pad elevation is adjusted with the drawing tools, the pad(s) moves, but the OIP elevation field does not update to new value.

Bug? Working as Designed? Or did I miss something?

Test:

In a drawing with a site model, create a pad, eg a Rectangle>Objects from Shapes>Site Modifier>Pad. Slope and Grade Limit not necessary for this test.

Pad defaults to Elevation 0.

Switch drawing to any side view & Screen Plane

Move the pad up or down with any of the drawing tools or commands: Drag, Move by points, 2d Move (y value), 3d Move (z value).

Note that OIP continues to report z=0

Same situation if the z value is adjusted sequentially via OIP, then drawing tool, then OIP, etc. The elevation field only reports the results of the OIP moves.

Who cares?

•OIP should report the Pad z value relative to the drawing z=0.

•Drawing tools can move a selection of many pads in one go. OIP method requires select/move each pad separately.
