4.3.3      Translate

The translate tool is used to move a geometrical objects along X, Y and Z axes.

After clicking  button in the QW-Modeller Ribbon's Geometry tab, an additional dialogue will appear for adjusting the objects location in the space.

The Apply incremental changes to object placement tick box is useful when translations are to be made relative the object's current position/attitude, rather than to the original position/attitude. Ticking this box resets the dialog's input fields to zero, but does not change the object's orientation or location. Subsequent entries do change the orientation/location, but are applied from the object's current position.

See Placement chapter for more information.
