Add a Diagonal Profile
Add a diagonal profile by selecting the line, with which you want cut the profile. An end point of a profile line must be under the cursor, for example a profile corner. The point clicked first will be highlighted in the drawing. After you click the second point, the diagonal will be positioned between the selected points.

- Before clicking the points for the profile, you can still change the size of the profile by clicking the profile's cross section view in the drawing window.
- You can change the size or type of the profile, when you finish adding of the same profile, after confirm points by selecting Comfirm.
