Defining Vertical Geometric Constraints
Use the GcVertical command to make an entity or pairs of constraint points on entities parallel to the Y-axis of the current coordinate system.
To define vertical Geometric Constraints by specifying entities:
- Click Constraints > Geometric Constraints > Vertical (or type GcVertical).
- Specify an entity (Line, linear PolyLine segment, SimpleNote, or Note).
- The specified entity is aligned parallel to the Y-axis of the current coordinate system.
To define vertical Geometric Constraints by specifying two constraint points:
- Click Constraints > Geometric Constraints > Vertical (or type GcVertical).
- Specify the 2Points option.
- Specify the first constraint point on an entity.
- This entity maintains its position.
- Specify the second constraint point on the same entity or another entity.
- The entity specified by two constraint points is aligned parallel to the Y-axis of the current coordinate system.
- If you specified the constraint points on two different entities, the entity specified by the second constraint point moves so that the second constraint point is aligned to the same Y-axis as the first constraint point.
