# Eaves Area - Move Point

The "Move Point" function allows an existing point on the canopy area line to be freely shifted within the plane of the roof surface. The point can be moved either so that one of the two adjacent lines retains its direction, or so that the directions of both lines are altered.

For this function, first select the point to be moved. The program then highlights the first of the two lines terminating at that point. With left mouse click you can choose this line as the direction line. The point will then be moved parallel to this line. With right mouse click this line is rejected and the other adjacent roof line is offered. If you also reject that with right mouse click, you can move the point freely.

Next you can graphically move the selected point and place it at the desired location. All snapping and input functions are available during this process.

After placing the point, a dialog box opens where you can correct the point's position again. When any number is changed, the other numbers will adjust automatically if necessary.

**Shift within the roof surface:** This value shows the distance from the old position to the new position of the point, measured along the slope of the surface.

**Displacement in Y direction:** This displays the displacement on the plan in the Y direction of the small red coordinate system.

**Vertical displacement:** This value indicates the height difference between the old and the new position of the moved point.

**Elevation of the point:** This field displays the absolute elevation of the moved point, measured from global 0.

**Displacement in X direction:** This displays the displacement on the plan in the X direction of the small red coordinate system.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.dietrichs.com/dietrichs-intelligent-documentation/docs-de-en/design-program/modellbereiche/dach/dachbereiche/vordachbereich-punkt-schieben.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
