right click the shape
use the corner handles
use the rotation arrows

To raise or lower an object in a 3D modeling or editing software, you typically follow specific procedures depending on the application you are using. Here’s how you might use the options you've mentioned:

  1. Use the Top Cone: In some modeling software, if you see a "top cone" or similar manipulator on an object, clicking and dragging this may allow you to move the object vertically (raise or lower it).

  2. Right Click the Shape: Right-clicking the shape might bring up a context menu that includes options to move, transform, or adjust the object's position. Depending on the software, there might also be specific commands for raising or lowering the object.

  3. Use the Corner Handles: If the object has corner handles or transformation handles, you can click and drag these to manipulate the height of the object. Dragging up will raise it, while dragging down will lower it.

  4. Use the Rotation Arrows: Typically, rotation arrows are used to rotate an object rather than to raise or lower it. However, if you're using a specific type of tool that also offers movement in addition to rotation, you might achieve a vertical movement by using them along with other controls.

Remember, the specific process can vary greatly depending on the software tool you are using (like Blender, Tinkercad, SketchUp, etc.), so it's always useful to refer to the documentation for that particular software for precise instructions.
