Manipulate a selected object
« on: July 21, 2016, 10:27:15 PM »
A selected group or component can be modified in several ways:

- KEY UP/DOWN : scale

- KEY LEFT/RIGHT : rotate

- END/POS1 : move up/down


After starting the tool, you must define a rotation axis via left mouse. Simply left-click on any surface or element (not in free space).
The center position will be indicated by a vertical construction line, z-axis (rotation) is always vertical.


Define rotation factor via VCB or context.

Define scale factor via context.

Define move delta (vertical) via context.


You can still move / scale / rotate the object via sketchup tools anytime, too.

Zoom in / out anytime during the scaling process.

Start the orbiter for continuous 3d-view and feedback (controll).



If you start the tool from its toolbar,
you have several option:

- Scale uniform
- Scale up uniform
- Scale down uniform
- Scale up/down

and a special option

- scale up with defined distance (enter in vcb)
