Project Normal

These functions are used to project selected entities along a vector normal to the projection plane. Multiple copies created by Project Normal would be created on top of one another. As a result, you will not be prompted for the number of copies that you intend to create.

Using the Function:

Select Project Normal >Move, Copy, or Join (see icons below) from the Transform >Project options.
