Change a Snow Load Polygon

  1. Click the Change Polygon button. Snow loads on the current floor type will be displayed, and the target cursor will appear.
  2. Click on any snow load to edit the polygon for that load. Once a snow load has been selected, its polygon outline will be drawn, and each point on the polygon will also be drawn.

    If the selected snow load has drift magnitude points, their numbers will be drawn. RAM Modeler is now in change polygon mode.

    If you delete a polygon point that is attached to a drift magnitude point, one of two things will happen. If the point that you drag it into does not have a drift magnitude assigned, the drift magnitude will move to the new point. If the point that you drag it into already has a drift magnitude assigned, you will be shown the Set Drift Magnitude Points dialog, and must points for all three drift magnitudes.
