qball Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 I have a dynamic block for HSS column. Previously it was always 1"x1" and I would just scale it to the proper column size I needed. Ignoring the wall thickness. But if there was an asymmetrical HSS (ie 4x6) the wall thicknesses and radii of corners would look funny. So now I want one that has Stretch Actions to change the size of the column. I added a Stretch to one side, then the other with distance multiplier of -1. But as you can see on the attached, the Linear Parameter baseline doesn't stretch. I want to have the Parameter Distance the actual full width of the column so I can change the columns with the Properties Palette. Otherwise, I would just start the Parameter from the centre of the column. HSS2.dwg Quote
nestly Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 I think all you have to do is change the Base location for the Stretch Parameter from "Startpoint" to "Midpoint" Quote
qball Posted May 27, 2011 Author Posted May 27, 2011 Great! Thanks. I never looked at that property before. Quote
