Define a position using the pointer on the 3D view

Many elements of the tree “Data” require to define a “Position” (x,y,z) in the 3D geometry. Data can be defined:

  • by filling the corresponding cells (x, y and z) in the corresponding “Properties” window;

  • by using the pointer. In this last case, user has to point the “Position” element with the pointer in the tree:
    • Right click on the “Position” element;

    • Select the “Define in the 3D view” option in the contextual menu;

    • Then, in the 3D view, users point a position on a visible face; this will affect the values (x,y,z) to the “Position” element. Users can then adjust values in the corresponding cell of the spreadsheet in the “Properties” window.
