Adding blank lines to a model

Before you begin

If you have not already opened the Model window and selected the model you want to work with, do so now. How?

To add blank lines to a model:

  1. Select a series of lines (two or more) by clicking the header of the first line, and then holding down Shift while you click the header of the last line.
  2. Right-click on a line header and select Insert # Blank Lines, where # is the same as the number of lines selected.
  3. Estimating inserts the blank lines above the selected lines.

Tips:  

  • You must add two or more blank lines to a model at one time. To quickly insert a single line in the model, right-click on a line header and select the Insert Line – <Line type> command. Estimating inserts the new line above the one selected.
  • You can also copy or move lines in a model.
