Editing raceway routes allows you to do the following: - Polish the routes before generating the conduit solution - Resolve issues, such as [Clash Detection](/v1/docs/working-with-clash-detection) and Unknown Parts, in the generated solution by editing problematic routes before re-generating. This article provides instructions on how you can [move](/v1/docs/editing-segments#move-a-committed-segment) and [delete](/v1/docs/editing-segments#delete-a-committed-segment) waypoints and segments individually or simultaneously. --- ## ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/info panel.png)Select Waypoints and Segments Editing raceway routes begins with selecting waypoints or segments. Once selected, you can: - [Move](/v1/docs/editing-segments#move-a-committed-segment) and [delete](/v1/docs/editing-segments#delete-waypoints) waypoints/segments individually or as a group - Use the Info ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/info button.png) panel to: - Inspect and adjust exact coordinates for a single waypoint - View assigned raceways and modify Rack Preview specifications of an individual Assigned Segment ### ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/lmb.png)Individual select To select a waypoint or segment, hover over it then click the left mouse button (LMB) once it’s highlighted. The status bar at the bottom will display your current ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-784UY3BP.png) selection count, and the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-LUYXKA4N.png) actions you can perform based on your selection. ### Multi-select Selecting multiple waypoints and segments at a time allows you to edit them simultaneously. There are multiple ways to do this in the Model Viewer. | Multi-select | How to | Animation | | --- | --- | --- | | Individually ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-XU2A1LHB.png) | To select multiple waypoints and segments individually, press and hold the **Ctrl** key as you select each one. - To deselect individual waypoints/segments, hold the Ctrl key then click it. | ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/random select.gif) | | Inline ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-FYRW1U7U.png) | To select all waypoints and segments in a straight line, double-click one of the segments along that line. | ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/entire line.gif) | | Between two selections ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-7AZWEJYR.png) | 1.

Editing the routes includes moving or deleting those waypoints and segments. ### Move Waypoints and Segments Waypoints and Segments can be moved individually or as a group (multi-selection). **Single Waypoint/Segment** To move a single waypoint/segment: 1. Enter Move mode by clicking **Move** on the Mode Selector. - Or press **M** on your keyboard. 2. *(Optional)* Switch to the axis or plane you want to move in by pressing its corresponding shortcut key. - Refer to the [Select the view and axis to draw in](/v1/docs/clone-manual-routing#select-the-view-and-axis-to-draw-in) section for the shortcut keys. 3. Click and drag the waypoint/segment to the new location. - Because the segment’s two waypoints move along with it, other segments connected to those waypoints will follow. - Moving a single waypoint allows you to change the slope or angle of the segment. | ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/move point new(1).gif) Moving a waypoint | ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/move segment new(2).gif) Moving a segment | | --- | --- | **Multi-selection** ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/move multi-select.gif) 1. Select the waypoints and/or segments you’d like to move at once. - You may use any [multi-select](/v1/docs/editing-segments#multiselect) method. 2. Enter Move mode by clicking **Move** on the Mode Selector. - Or press **M** on your keyboard. 3. Click the base point for moving the selection. - The base point is the reference for switching between axes and planes. 4. *(Optional)* Switch to the axis or plane you want to move in by pressing its corresponding shortcut key. - Refer to the [Select the view and axis to draw in](/v1/docs/clone-manual-routing#select-the-view-and-axis-to-draw-in) section for the shortcut keys. 5. Drag to the target location then click. - To cancel the move, right-click on any location. ### Delete Waypoints To delete waypoints, follow the steps below: 1. Enter Select mode. - If you’re in either Draw or Move mode, press **Esc** on your keyboard. 2. Select the waypoint/s to delete. - Press and hold the Ctrl key to select multiple waypoints. 3. Press **Del**. Once a waypoint is deleted, the segment/s connecting it to another waypoint adjusts depending on the waypoint’s position. - **Open waypoints** - at the end of a segment. - **Deleting an open waypoint also deletes the segment connecting it to another waypoint.** ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/delete open waypoint(2).gif) - **Connecting waypoints** - shared by two or more segments. - **Deleting a connecting waypoint merges the segments sharing the deleted waypoint.** | ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/connecting 2.gif) The two segments sharing the deleted corner waypoint are merged into a single angled segment. | ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/connecting 3.gif) The two segments sharing the deleted waypoint are merged into a single straight segment. | | --- | --- | ### Delete Segments Any segment in the model may be deleted. 1. Enter Select mode. - If you’re in either Draw or Move mode, press **Esc** on your keyboard. 2. Select the waypoints and/or segments you’d like to delete. - You may use any [multi-select](/v1/docs/editing-segments#multiselect) method. 3. Press **Del** on your keyboard. You can also simultaneously delete **all unused** or **all segments**. **Unused segments** ![Menu options for deleting unused segments and confirmation dialog in software interface.](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/delete unused.png)Unused segments don’t connect a raceway’s Source and Destination, and may get in the way while you’re drawing or navigating through the site. To easily clean up the view, simultaneously delete all Unused Segments, and their routes by following the steps below. 1. Click the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-RNB7BTKD.png) menu icon at the bottom right corner. 2. Click the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-ZQ3TT1D6.png) **Delete Unused Segments** option. 3. In the pop-up dialog box, click the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-1MXPDHX7.png) **Delete** button. - This action may be undone by pressing **Ctrl** + **Z** on your keyboard. **All segments** ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/delete all.png)There may be instances when you need to restart drawing in an existing study, such as when duplicating a study to explore different raceway routes. To easily delete all segments in a study, follow the steps below: 1. Click the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-RNB7BTKD.png) menu icon at the bottom right corner. 2. Click the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-ZQ3TT1D6.png) **Delete All Segments** option. 3. In the pop-up dialog box, click the ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-1MXPDHX7.png) **Delete** button. - This action may be undone by pressing **Ctrl** + **Z** on your keyboard. > [!NOTE] > ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/C4.png) *This will clear all of the segments from the study.* > > - *Once you start drawing again, the deleted segments can no longer be brought back.* --- ## Next Steps Once the raceway’s Source and Destination connects with each other, [Clashes are detected](/v1/docs/working-with-clash-detection) and may be resolved in the route. A study type in which ACP generates conduits based on raceway routes drawn using interactive routing tools available exclusively within this study type. Visualizes the estimated space that the rack will occupy to carry all conduits of the raceways assigned to the segment. It also highlights segments which clash with other geometry. A committed segment which is part of the route connecting a Source and Destination. It’s visualized in the Model Viewer with the Rack Preview.
