Stretch & Cutback

Use this to apply both of these adjusters to a single 1D or 2D Member.

The Stretch & Cutback combination has the same effect as using the two adjusters separately.

For example, a 1D Member may need to be stretched at one end, and cut back at the other end.

A 2D Member can be stretched on one edge and cut back on another.
