transform menu

move axes


Purpose
When this toggle button is active, the position of the global axes or the position of the local axes for the currently active part of the tree can be repositioned in the environment.

Usage
Click the move axes toggle button to activate it. Click the toggle button again to deactivate it.

Comments
The move axes toggle button can be active only if either the global axes or the local axes toggle button is active. Depending on the axes button state, move axes applies to global or local axes. Local and global axes cannot be active at the same time. The following buttons will now relate to the position of the global axes or that of the local axes for the currently active part of the tree: move, rotate, size, x-y-z-size, squash, skew, mirror and the x, y and z, rot- and size-x, y and z input boxes . Transformation of the axes is related to the world coordinate system (wcs), not to the axes displayed in the object windows.
