When you start adding a spline to a route it will always be placed at the height of the terrain regardless of the Tool Options Palette Height setting.
However, you can set the height of any selected segment or endpoint.
Setting a Spline Objects Height
Track objects that have been moved away from or closer to the track will still function normally.
A selected track mesh object, or a group of selected track mesh objects, will have a Context Icon that opens a Context Menu. The icon design will vary between object types.
Splines are frequently made of multiple segments joined together. You can easily move a spline by moving its segments, individually or as a group.
A selected scenery spline object, or a group of selected scenery spline objects, will have a Context Icon that opens a Context Menu. The icon design will vary between object types.
Using the same situation as above, the isolated guard van and the gondola wagon at the end of a consist are to be coupled together.
A selected track mesh object, or a group of selected track mesh objects, will have a Context Icon that opens a Context Menu. The icon design will vary between object types.

You must have an object (or objects) selected for the position data to be shown and edited. Open up the position data by a Left Click on its Pos: arrowhead icon.
You must have an object (or objects) selected for the rotation data to be shown and edited. Open up the rotation data by a Left Click on its Rot: arrowhead icon.
You must have an object (or objects) selected for the layer data to be shown and edited. Open up the layer data by a Left Click on its Layer: arrowhead icon.
