- [Instructor] In our last exercise, we created a very simple corridor. But we also were introduced to targeting as we were able to take our sub-assembly for daylighting and tying it in, or having it target a specific surface. Let's take another look at targeting from a different perspective. Let's go open up our exercise file, 08_05_CorrTargets. And what we're going to do is not target a surface in this case, but we're going to target a horizontal element. I notice here that we have drawn in our drawing a little bit of a drop-off or additional lane as you can see. So we have a taper at the beginning here. And we have a taper at the end. The alignment is heading from the left to the right. And so that was drawn in with AutoCAD. We see the edge of our travel way here, in the curb lines, drawn in with just regular AutoCAD lines. And what we're going to do is we're going to take advantage of that and we're going to stretch our lane sub-assembly to follow that path. To do that, we're…
