KeyCreator Transform Mating position

 

Note: The information below applies to the move function. Position Copy is the same, except it copies the selected geometry, instead of moving it.

This function moves entities, preserving their orientation.

Using the Function

See the geometry figure below.

  3. Specify the target point.

  4. Select a position for the Entity Mate, or Skip or Accept/OK to not create an associative Entity Mate.

From this point forward the target point and transform origin are mated (associative) while the mating marker exists. For mating basics see the Mating Overview.
