Move and Copy Parts

the ProSteel copy and move commands offer you additional help beyond CAD copy and move controls by offering the option of limiting the direction of the move. Apart from that, you can specifically take the group structure into consideration..

Using MicroStation tentative snaps in a view may result in points being selected that are not in the proper plane. The ProSteel copy and move commands prevent this by limiting the direction of the move to the current user coordinate system plane or even to one axis direction.

If several individual components have been assembled into construction modules or groups, this command can be used to process the entire group by selecting just one part of the group. This will eliminate unnecessary searching and collecting of the parts within a selection set.

After the command has been selected, a dialog box will become available featuring the following options, each single tab permitting a certain action.
