[General] Props in Air!

[Garodar]

So, I found out that there are some props/doddads in air. Whenever I move them, they go down. I wanna know how people keep their props in air... Mid air. Is it a function or another UI?

EDIT: Btw, how do people squish their props and doddads in the ground, so, like half of it is underground.

I wanna know how people keep their props in air.

Select the doodad and press "PgUp" on your keyboard. You can only elevate it so far.

PgDn

PgUp doesn't eleveta it, it extends its corners and makes them huge. I need them to be attached like a bridge on platform, but attached as props. There is land, sea, then land. I need a doddads/bridge to be up beetwen. Usually, its not.

This only squishes them, I need them to be half underground. Like an npc without legs.

I'm sure what Radicool said is the correct method. Because if I remember correctly, it doesn't extend. But to be more accurate, you can try check some tutorials here.

PgUp Increases XYZ scaling (up to the maximum for the doodad in OE) while PgDn does the opposite. Add Ctrl to change Z height.

It's just like CakeMaster wrote.

[PgUp] / [PgDown] for scaling the object on Z axis (= scaling its height)
[CTRL] + [PgUp] / [CTRL] + [PgDown] for moving the object on Z axis (= moving up or down).

You can also change the key binding in File -> Configure Controls.

Under >Advanced untick "Reset fixed object heights"

This does not affect copying objects, though, which would be a simple (and probably by most terrainers desired) matter for Blizzard to fix if they cared.

The CTRL + PGUP/DOWN works. Thanks.
