Rib Line

I have created a model in which the ceiling slab is lined with ribs. When I assign a Rib member type to the boundary line of the surface and align it to the bottom edge of the surface, the boundary line is automatically pulled towards the center of gravity of the rib, that is, downwards under the slab. Is there a way to change this so that my lines still appear at the edge of the surface?

Answer:

Definition lines for ribs can be activated in the Display navigator > Model > Basic Objects > Lines > Lines Outside Members. The members/ribs themselves are always displayed with eccentricity. That cannot be changed.
