The Placement dialog

Usage

  1. Select a single object that is not a sub-element of a PartDesign body.
  2. Select the Edit → Placement... option from the menu.
  3. Change one or more of the translation and rotation parameters.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • Press the OK button to apply the changes and close the dialog.
    • Press the Apply button to apply the changes, but keep the dialog open.

Options

  • Press Esc or the Cancel button to abort the operation. This will undo any changes to the translation and rotation that have not been applied.
