# Move Backward

![CmdCwBackward.svg](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/CmdCwBackward.svg)

This command moves the active slice or plane by one step in the negative direction along its axis.

> [!TIP]
> ### Requirements
> 
> No selection is required to launch the command but you need at least one active limit slice or one active limit plane in your file.

---

> [!WARNING]
> ### Notes
> 
> - In case of slice, the step is equal to the thickness of the slice.
> - In case of plane, the step is equal to the defined step if defined (see [Edit Limit Object](https://hexagon.atlassian.net/wiki/display/RCD/SlicePlaneEditC)), else the step is function of the zoom factor.
> - If there are 2 active limit objects in your file, the last created will be used.
