Fan Distance is the height of the fan from the center of the end objects.

Positive value fans the objects upwards; negative value fans the objects downward.      

The Fan can also be adjusted by clicking and moving the center handle of the fan with the mouse.

If the fan is unselected (i.e., the mouse is clicked elsewhere on the design), reselect the objects and click Set Fan to reselect the fan function to continue editing it.
