Position When this button is checked, dragging the left mouse button in 2D windows will move the viewport, in the 3D window the camera view will be rotated. Dragging the right button will zoom the window.
Select Select mode. Drag a box around the objects you wish to select, or click onto them. By pressing [Ctrl] you can click-select several objects. Selecting by frame is also possible in the other modes.
Move Move mode. Move the selected objects. Arrows in the directions of the coordinate axes appear around the selection. By dragging an arrow you can move the objects along the arrow direction. Terrain height map vertices can only be moved in vertical direction. If a move snap value is set, they can only be moved in multiples of that value. You can also move by pressing the cursor keys.
Rotate Rotate mode. Rotate the selected objects. Rotation is about the point you first click. Drag the mouse up/down to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. By vertically dragging an arrow you can rotate the objects about the arrow axis. If a rotate snap value is set, the faces / vertices can only be rotated in multiples of that value. Note that terrain must not be rotated.
Scale Scale mode. Scale the selected objects. Drag up/down to scale larger/smaller. By vertically dragging an arrow you can scale the objects along the arrow axis. By dragging the angle between the two arrows, the object is scaled along 2 axes; by clicking on any part of the selected object and dragging vertically it's scaled along all 3 axes. The object can also be scaled with the [Cursor Up] / [Cursor Down] buttons.
Slice Wire A7.7 This mode allows to cut selected groups with a wire. Activate Group mode. Select a group, then click anywhere to place the starting point of the wire. Drag anywhere to place the end point. The wire can be moved by dragging its center point. Hit [Enter] for cutting the selected part on the right side of the wire.
Slice Plane A7.7 This mode allows to cut selected groups with a plane. Activate Group mode. Select a group, then click anywhere to place the slice plane. The plane can be rotated by dragging its 'cantilever'. Within the selected object, the cut is indicated by a green line. Hit [Enter] for cutting the selected part on the cantilever side of the plane.
