NOTE You cannot pull the mass element face at such an angle, either
horizontally or vertically, that the adjacent faces become non-planar.
If this distorted condition occurs, the mass element face automatically
returns to its original position and an error message is displayed on
the command line.
Pulling a mass element face freely while adding adjacent faces
The face of the Free Form mass element is moved freely and its
geometry remains unchanged, while adjacent faces between the
original geometry and the moved face are added.
NOTE The location of the current UCS is temporarily moved to
coincide with the original position of the Face grip that you select
when you are working with this option. Only the UCS origin is
changed, not its orientation.
