Select the Face along which you want to move the edge: now you can slide the edges upwards and be sure they slide along the face that you selected in 1. above You can use Edge slide ( G G or ⎈ Ctrl E >Edge slide) to do this: Note that G G will call edge slide or vertex slide depending on the selected topology.
How can I change the position of the edge loop?
As you move the mouse the length indicator in the header changes showing where along the length of the edge you are. To change the control edge that determines the position of the edge loop, use the Alt – Wheel to scroll to a different edge.
Why are my edges not in the same loop?
The selected edges are not in the same edge loop, which means they do not have a common edge. You can minimize this error by always selecting edges end-to-end or in a “chain”. If you select multiple edges just make sure they are connected. This will decrease the possibility of getting looping errors.
Can a edge loop be found on only one face?
An edge loop cannot be found because there is only one face. Remember, edge loops are loops that span two or more faces. A general rule of thumb is that if multiple edges are selected they should be connected end-to-end such that they form a continuous chain.
