Changing offset planes

You can use the Planes palette in Modification mode to change offset planes in a plane model.

You can make the following changes directly in the Planes palette:

• Use the Height box to change the distance between the offset plane and the bottom level or top level.
  When the offset plane is used by all stories, the new distance applies to all structural levels.
• Use the symbol between Height and Name to switch between Link with bottom level and Link with top level.
• Click the Name to change it.

Select Modify offset plane on the shortcut menu of an offset plane to open the Modify offset plane palette, which is the same as the Insert offset plane palette. You can make the following changes in this palette:

• Change the name, distance, and link with setting.
• Only in this palette can you change the Applies to all floors option.

You can make the following changes in the workspace:

• Use the handles and entry boxes to directly modify the offset plane.
