Moving a Highway Section
This topic details how to move or stretch a highway section on a topology plane.
Note that you can also add Grip Points to a harness and use them to move sections.
Procedure
In the diagram, either:
Click a highway section, hold down the mouse button and drag the highway section
Click the end of a highway section, hold down the mouse button and drag the end of the highway section
Results
If you have dragged a whole highway section, the selected highway section moves to the new location.
If you have dragged the end of a highway section, the section moves or changes length as required.
Any other highway sections connected to the highway section move or change length as required to maintain the connection.
If you have dragged an end of a highway section over another highway section, a connection is created.
If you have dragged an end of a highway section over a highway section from a separate highway, the highway being moved merges into the other highway. In the Design Browser Window, the highway being moved is no longer displayed and its signals are displayed under the other highway.
