Problem with bridges

After placing my bridges in the spot i needed them i noticed that the legs are too short to reach the ground.
Is there a way to make the legs touch the ground?

Here is a pic showing my problem:

Just make columns out of doodads, otherwise you'd have to edit the model.

And the skin, otherwise that would look total crap (without a major model edit, I mean).

Thats a badly designed model anyway.
I mean, what bridge what need legs like that? Bridges are self supported.
Some bridges need legs, but not tiny ones like that.
Why dont you use a bigger bridge? I could really solve alot of problems.
Although, it might not fit your theme.

I can't find any bridge models with long legs so it will touch the ground.
Not exactly alot of bridge models out there.

Why not just stack pieces of wall in order to make columns? That'd save you a lot of work

Yea, on post 2, it seemed like a good idea, because sometimes they can look perfect like its the actual bridge, its worth a try.

Use more than one piece of wall per column dude. And keep the scale in proportion

Well it looks ok by stacking it.

How can i copy it and paste it but so each object keeps its height so i can copy and paste it for each leg?

Click it, Control + C, then do Control + V and put it down somewhere.

I tried that, it forces them to ground height.

Also Reset fixed object heights is turned off.

Well, CnP is the only option to, well, copy and paste lol.
So you will either have to do that, or manually =/.
