Hi, i have an interesting question that i am going nuts on. When rotating the arrow on a corner on a block to create a slope it breaks into 2 segments. Now one segment stays on the floor and the other one go's up. When you look at the perfect pyramid project on Sage's website you see that the edges of the pyramid are broken different. When you create a slope normally the breaking line stays on the ground while i know there is a way to lift up this line to create a corner instead of a triangle sticking up. Anyone knows how to do that?

That doest work. I know how to get the arrow in a corner and break the surface. I want to make a corner instead of a triangle. It is possible. It is also in the alexandria level when you come of the train. On the square with the fountain you see the little building with the jump-switch. Look at the roof. It has a corner. How to do this, its not in the manual!!! Help

But it's true!

First you raise a triangle from the floor of whatever height you wish, then you click (in the main editor window) on that selfsame square while at the same time holding down the left ALT button.

Try again. It works that way, I swear.
