FiGuRE 5.36 Select the stairs for the next STRETCH command.
FiGuRE 5.37 Select the .X point filter from the Object Snap context menu.
6. Click either endpoint of the top step.
This point is in line with the midpoint you picked in step 2, so the
stretch will move the stairs vertically, not horizontally.
Move the cursor around in the drawing area and you'll see that the
movement of the stairs is now restricted to the y-axis. In the com-
mand window, the notation (need YZ) is appended to the prompt,
indicating that AutoCAD will use only the Y and Z components of
the next location picked. (Only the y-axis is referenced if you are
using AutoCAD LT.)
7. Click the Snap to Midpoint button in the Object Snap toolbar, and
then click the midpoint of the threshold (see Figure 5.38).
