    Move Face Parameters

    In doing a move face I noticed there isn't any parameters that can be edited after the move face has been created. I want to control the face length with a parameter after it has been created. Am I missing something or is there a work-a-round?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi meck,

     

    If you switch from the Free Move method to the Direction and Distance method, I think you'll get the parameter input you're looking for:

    I hope this helps.
    Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
