Tilted Surface Properties

X Position:        This parameter specifies the x position of the center of one side of the tilted surface.

Y Position:                This parameter specifies the y position of the center of one side of the tilted surface.

Z Offset:                This parameter specifies the z position of the lower border of the tilted surface.

Angle in XY plane: This parameter specifies the rotation of the tilted surface in the XY plane.

Z tilt angle:        This parameter specifies the angle between the tilted surface and the XY plane.

Width:                This parameter specifies the width of the tilted surface.

Height:                This parameter specifies the height of the tilted surface.

Infinite Surface:        Activate this checkbox to create an infinite surface.

 

Enable the checkbox to the right of the cog wheel to see the tilted surface in the View2D.
