NOTE If the cable tray or conduit segment is not connected to another object, you can change both its length and angle using the Start or End grip. Start and End grips enable you to change the XYZ location of the start point or endpoint of a segment. They are particularly useful when initially designing runs because you can use them to easily connect a segment to an existing run.
