Move
Menu: Edit Icon: Short cut: Ctrl + T
Moves the selected model content
Permits a displacement of the selected model content in X-, Y- or Z-direction.
If particular parts are chosen within a model, the defined displacement refers only to the
selected objects. If no parts are chosen, the whole model content is moved.
HINT: In build preparation, selected model parts can also be Picked and moved and positioned
directly with the mouse. This is especially helpful when arranging several parts in the envelope
of the machine.
INFO: Using the function Undo, you can reset a moved part or object at any time. You can
reprocess the movement with the function Redo. This mechanism allows comfortable switching
between different positions when moving parts.
Dialog Move
Translation values
Defines the values for the displacement of the
model content alongside the three coordinate
axes.
X-axis: Displacement along the X-axis
Y-axis: Displacement along the Y-axis
Z-axis: Displacement along the Z-axis
Translation type
Determines how the translation values are to be
used on the model content.
Move relative: Starting from the current position,
the model content is displaced by the defined
values.
Move absolute: The centre of the model content is moved to the defined position independently
of its current position.
Remember entered values
If this option is active, the entered scaling values are saved and at the next call of the function,
they will be available as default values in the dialog. If the option is switched off, all factors are
preset with the value of 0.
