The usual move-type commands: Drag, Elevate, Rotate, Mirror and Multiply, are available
for Shells and the work exactly the same as they do in case of other element types.
Another available command is the Free Rotate command which so far has been available only
for Curtain Walls.
It is now available for Shells as well. The way it works is we first define the Rotation
Axis with two clicks, while the third click and fourth click define the rotation arc starting
point and ending point, respectively.
The rotation occurs in a plane perpendicular to the rotation axis as the editing plane
display shows.
Naturally, using this command, the Shell can be rotated into any position in space. If
we now return to the Floor Plan we can see its Floor Plan display has been updated to
show the new true vertical projection of the Shell.
