How to use the terrain height brush in selection mode

When the terrain height brush is used in selection mode, modifications to the elevation model are made in 2 explicit steps.

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Terrain (Ribbon bar) → Edit elevation model (Dropdown)

How to modify the elevation model in selection mode:

1. Set the terrain height brush to "Selection" style.
2. Set the brush type (next to "selection") to the desired brush type, and set the size for drawing the selection as desired.
3. Draw a selection in the 3D Visualization.
4. Set the desired angle as desired.
5. Set the desired height as desired. (Take note of the "average height at selection" for some insight into appropriate height values)
6. Ensure that the height setting is set to either "Absolute" or "Relative", as desired.
7. Select "Apply Selection". The visualized elevation model will now appear modified. Note that the project data has not been affected yet.
8. Create more modifications as desired
9. When all desired modifications have been created and are deemed appropriate, select "Apply Changes"
10. The project's elevation model will now be modified with the modifications you have made.
