Object transformation

The program provides functions to transform the selected objects.

Object translation

The function moves the selected objects by offset.

1. Click [Transform Object] button.
   

   

2. Select [Translate Objects] option in the active window.
   

   

   
   
3. Select translation options.
   

   

   
   

   There are two move options.

   • Axis + Distance: The function moves the selected objects by the distance along the axis.
   • Offset: The function moves the selected objects by offset(X, Y, Z).
4. Select objects to move
   

   

   
   
5. Click [Move] button.
   

   

Object rotation

The function rotates the selected objects along an axis.

1. Click [Transform Object] button.
   

   

2. Select [Rotate Objects] option in the active window.
   

   

   
   
3. Select rotation options.
   

   

   
   
   • Rotation center (X, Y, Z)
   • Rotation Axis (X, Y, Z)
   • Rotation angle in degree.

   There are help function to set rotation axis.

   

   X Axis	(1, 0, 0)
   Y Axis	(0, 1, 0)
   Z Axis	(0, 0, 1)
   Direction of selected object	If two points selected, the direction from starting point to the end point is set.
   	If a line or a path segment is selected, the direction of the line is set.
   	If the direction vector of a path segment is selected, the direction vector is set.
   	If a plane is selected, the normal vector of the plane is set.

4. Select objects to rotate.
5. Click the [Rotate] button.
   

   

   
   

Object mirror transformation

The function moves and mirrors the selected object to the opposite side of an axis.

1. Click [Transform Object] button.
   

   

2. Select [Mirror objects] option in the active window.
   

   

   
   
3. Set mirroring axis.
   

   

   
   

   The mirror axis setting options are as follows.

   Provides normal direction lookup function. The options for selecting objects for lookup are:
   • If two points selected, the direction from starting point to the end point is set.

   • If a line is selected, the direction of the line is set.

   • If a path is selected, the direction of the path is set.

   • If the direction vector of a path segment is selected, the direction vector is set.

   • If a plane is selected, the normal vector of the plane is set.

4. Select objects to mirror.
5. Select the [Mirroring] button.
