Align a single folder

Align a single folder

The Align a single folder function is an editing function to efficiently change the alignment of all elements in a folder to a line that will be referenced to horizontal on the page. This function should only be used in the editing phase of a project, and should usually only be used on a horizontal folder.

!This function should NOT be used during a measurement, if the folder relates to other folders as the reference to other folders is lost.

To use the ‘Align a Single Folder’ function, simply click on the ‘Align a single folder’ button, and click on the left side of line, as if you are looking at it from the front.

If you click on the right side of a line, the software will interpret this as the ‘left’ side as viewed from the other direction. To correct this, simply use the function again.
Note: this function can only be used on lines, not polylines or other elements.
