Translate Dialog

Open the Translate dialog

• You can either:

  • Select the menu item TRANSFORMATIONS \ TRANSLATE...

  • Select the icon in the Transformations toolbar.

  

The three translate methods all move an object a relative displacement defined either by:

Relative

Specifies the distances in the 3 axis (X, Y and Z) directions.

Vertex to Vertex

Specifies the vector by two selected vertices.

Vertex to Coordinates

Specifies the vector by a single vertex and an absolute (X, Y and Z) - .

On clicking Translate, the User will be prompted to pick the vertices (if required) and the object to be translated.

With the Copy & Repeat option selected, a copy of the object is created and then translated, as many times as requested (each time using the last created object as the start point).
