Setting	Description
Fins	Used to select a fin type for placement. The Fins drop-down list contains all the fin assembly definitions available to the project. Horizontal/Vertical — A read only label used as an indicator of the fin orientation with respect to the object it is being placed on. The actively selected fin construction determines if the label is Horizontal or Vertical.
Confine fin to surface extents	When on, fins can not be longer than the surface type they are associated with, and they can not overlap the surface in any direction. For instance, a window that is 1200 mm long can have fins no longer than 1200 mm. When off, there are no restrictions on the length and extents of fins being placed.
Horizontal distance from surface	Sets the horizontal distance to the first fin from the surface or window is placed on.
Vertical distance from surface head	Sets the vertical distance to the first fin from the surface or window is placed on.
Height	Sets the height (length) of vertical fins. The Height option is disabled for horizontal fins.
