NOTE This justification is used only when inserting the slab and is
not retained as a parameter of the slab. Justification is intended
primarily for Direct mode.
The slopeline is the position of the slab or roof slab baseline
relative to its bottom face. The thickness offset in the style
determines the distance between the baseline and the bottom
face.
19 Select a direction, or define how the slab or roof slab is drawn
relative to the baseline.
20 Enter a value for the depth of the overhang for Overhang.
21 Select a style for Perimeter edge.
22 For Edge style location, select the drawing file containing the edge
style used for slabs created with this tool, or select Browse and
use a standard file selection dialog box to select the file.
23 Click OK.
Editing Slabs and Roof Slabs
After placing a slab or roof slab object, you can change its style, location, size,
shape, slope, edge styles, and other characteristics. You can miter its edges
and trim or extend it using another object as a reference. You can also modify
slabs and roof slabs using other objects as interference conditions or body
modifiers.
Depending on the type of editing you want to perform, various methods may
be available:
â–  After selecting a slab or roof slab, you can click any non-grip point along
the perimeter and drag the entire object to a new location. You can also
move the object by clicking a grip, pressing the Space bar, and then moving
the object to the new location and clicking again.
â–  You can drag the grips that are displayed on a selected slab or roof slab to
reorient it, resize it, or change other physical characteristics.
â–  For grip edits where you are changing a dimension or an angle, the
Dynamic Input feature lets you enter a precise value instead of dragging
a grip. (This feature is activated by default; you can toggle it on and off by
clicking DYN on the application status bar. For more information, see
Dynamic Dimensions on page 128.)
