The vertical segment is stretched when the move direction is up (left image). The two horizontal segments are stretched when the move direction is to the right (right image).

Tip: If any diffuser is connected to a duct system then selecting all and "move/copy component" will not change the diffuser's position. The duct will be stretched to maintain the connection with diffuser (in one direction).
