A surface can be rotated if you click and hold its snap point and drag it to the desired position. In the usual way, you can also change the color of a surface that you have positioned on the drawing area by right-clicking on the surface and choosing Material/Color from the pop-up menu which appears.
Some of the surface settings can be changed after you have positioned the surface in the drawing area.
In order to do so, follow the instructions below:
Right-click on component. A pop-up menu is displayed.
Choose Settings from the pop-up menu. The Settings dialog is displayed.
The Settings dialog has one tab that contains the following fields:
In the Simple Lines field you can change the Line type of the lines that surround the surface as well as the Width of these lines.
In the 3D field, in the Height box, you can change the height of the surface when you view it in 3D, i.e. its thickness. Using Distance to floor, you can change how high the surface should be above the floor. The value you enter is the distance between the floor and the underside of the Surface.
In the Draw Order field, you can determine the order in which the selected surface should be drawn in 2D (i.e. what layer it should be in). By dragging the slider to the maximum level, the surface will end up on top of all other components. By dragging it to the lowest level, it will be shown beneath other components.
