Offset Panels / Tiles: CP_TILEOFFSET – CADPower Command

Key features include:

1. Offset Individual Tiles or Entire Rows

Move a single tile or offset a complete row of tiles in one action.
Adjust tile positions manually or in alignment with predefined layouts.

2. Seamless Integration with CP_TILEPLACE

Works directly with tiles and panels placed using CP_TILEPLACE.
Automatically detects existing tile arrangements for easy modifications.

3. Smart Row Selection

Selecting a single tile gives an option to scan and select the entire row automatically.
Saves time by eliminating the need for manual row selection.

4. Intuitive Drag-Based Placement

Offsets are controlled using a rubber-band drag line, ensuring precise movement.
The offset direction follows the ORTHO mode settings for controlled adjustments.

5. Enhanced Flexibility for Tile Adjustments

Supports offsetting along the placement direction, allowing easy alignment corrections.
Useful for modifying modular tile layouts, panel arrangements, and grid-based designs.

Ideal Applications

Architectural Tile Adjustments: Quick corrections to tile misalignments.
