I have a floor object representing a sidewalk with a 1 : 50 cross-slope. For some reason if I try to move it in either plan or section using the Move command, the floor either moves more than the amount I enter, or it completely flies off into some random location. I have to move it in plan by editing the sketch, or in section by entering the floor's elevation directly, which is really a pain.

The floor has one slope-defining line, and no slope arrows. What could be the problem?

Did you try using the Disjoin option when moving? Does the same thing happen?

Yep, same thing. I try to move it in plan and I type in 2 feet and it moves 4 feet. If I type in 1 foot it moves 2 feet. Same no matter if disjoin is picked or not.

I have seen this happen with several floor objects in this project. However if I create a new floor and apply the same slope, it acts fine when moving it in plan.
