Hi folks,

I apologise if this is a newbie question but my head's not working well today and I'm struggling with finding this answer in searches in Google or on the forum... In V5 (R30) drafting how do I adjust the length of individual legs of a centreline?

I have a large semi-circular part and in the end view showing the centreline I have one leg that extends way outside the part and extending a long way across the drawing and it looks a bit silly but I need the other three legs at their full length and I only seem to be able to adjust all four legs at the same time.

Many thanks,
Dave

Hold the control key and drag the leg you want to modify (select the white dot at the end of the leg). If control doesn't work, try the other modifier keys (it's been a while since I've drafted in Catia, so my memory is a little fuzzy).
 
Ahh, of course. Thanks Stick [thumbsup2], I remember that now. It's amazing how easy it is for me to forget even the basic stuff when I don't use it for a few months.
