Download ADE - Ground Polys

Using Helper Shapes
ADE has a number of helper shapes that can be used to create objects like aprons or custom
ground lines and polys. To add a helper shape use Right Click > Add Helper Shape.
A few things to know about ADE helper shapes:
 helper shapes can be turned into custom ground poly objects;
 most aspects of helper shapes, including heading, can be controlled by you;
when you save a helper shape, you create a GP object of the same shape.
To edit the helper shape:
1. When created a helper shape is displayed with a black border
2. Select the helper shape to move it or use the handle to change the heading. If you have a
ProKey then small handles around the object allow it to be resized. Without the ProKey
the helper can be re-sized using the keyboard.
3. Helpers can be edited in the same way as other objects and the Helper Shape property
dialog. You can change all the properties except the shape type. In the case below, the
height and heading have been updated.
