TRANSFORM SHAPES AND NODES
MOVE :
Apply to Shapes : Move all selected shapes to X,Y.
Apply to Nodes : Move all selected nodes to X,Y (Relative Movement). <Example of Move Nodes>
Apply to Rotation Point : Move the Rotation Point of all selected shapes to X,Y.
- Isometric direction of X,Y:
Orthogonal,
Left,
Right and
Center. (Default = Orthogonal, angle = 0º)
- X, Y :
- Relative Position (Offset): is the distance to move.
- Absolute Position (from 0,0): is the Absolute Position desired for the active selection.
ROTATE :
- Rotation: Angle or rotation (degrees).
Apply to Shapes : Rotate all selected shapes around X,Y.
Apply to Nodes : Rotate all selected nodes around X,Y.
- Apply to Each Shape (Only for Relative Position):
(Default): Rotate the whole selection.
Each Shape is rotated around its own Reference Position.
- Polar movement:
(Default): Default rotation mode.
Move selected shapes around the center of rotation (Polar Movement).<Example of Polar Movement>.
- Isometric direction of X,Y:
Orthogonal,
Left,
Right and
Center. (Default = Orthogonal, angle = 0º)
- X, Y :
- Relative Position (Offset): is the offset to the "center of rotation", measured from the Reference Point of the active selection. After you Press [Rotate], Relative Position is toggled to Absolute Position.
- Absolute Position (from 0,0): is the Absolute Position of the "center of rotation" of the active selection.
STRETCH :
- Width/Height : Size (Negative values are also accepted)
- Apply to Each Shape (Only for Relative Position):
(Default): Stretch the whole selection.
Each Shape is stretched from its own Reference Position. <Example of Stretch Each Shape>
- Isometric direction of X,Y:
Orthogonal,
Left,
Right and
Center. (Default = Orthogonal, angle = 0º)
- X, Y :
- Relative Position (Offset): is the offset to the "center of stretch", measured from the Reference Point of the active selection.
- Absolute Position (from 0,0): is the Absolute Position of the "center of stretch" of the active selection.
MIRROR (FLIP)
,
: Horizontal and Vertical mirror.
- Isometric : Isometric mirror (as seen in the above image), it is
available only for the Orthogonal isometric direction
.
- Apply to Each Shape (Only for Relative Position):
(Default): Mirror the whole selection.
Each Shape is mirrored from its own Reference Position.
- Mirror Text : (Default=Checked) : If not Checked, text don't mirror. <Example of Mirror Shapes excluding Texts>
- Isometric direction of X,Y:
Orthogonal,
Left,
Right and
Center. (Default = Orthogonal, angle = 0º)
- X, Y :
- Relative Position (Offset): is the offset to the "center of mirror", measured from the Reference Point of the active selection.
- Absolute Position (from 0,0): is the Absolute Position of the "center of Mirror" of the active selection.
SKEW (TILT)
- Hº(Degrees) / Vº(Degrees) : angle to skew.
- Apply to Each Shape (Only for Relative Position):
(Default): Skew the whole selection.
Each Shape is skewed from its own Reference Position.
- Isometric direction of X,Y:
Orthogonal,
Left,
Right and
Center. (Default = Orthogonal, angle = 0º)
- X, Y :
- Relative Position (Offset): is the offset to the "center of Skew", measured from the Reference Point of the active selection.
- Absolute Position (from 0,0): is the Absolute Position of the "center of Skew" of the active selection.
ADDITIONAL COMMANDS
Pick Point : Get the value for X and Y.
- If "relative Position" is selected: Gets the relative distance (DeltaX,DeltaY) from the reference point of the "active selection" to the clicked position.
- If "Absolute Position" is selected: Gets X,Y position from the picked point.
- Note: If you pick over another shape, a window to select the reference point of this shape is shown.
Width: X = Width of the active selection. (If "each shape" is selected, the width belongs to the last selected shape)
Height: Y = Height of the active selection. (If "each shape" is selected, the height belongs to the last selected shape)
Auto Refresh (Checked by default) : Refresh automatically the Absolute position of the active selection. Uncheck to lock an absolute position.
Scale : (Checked by default) : Transform using the actual scale.
Note1: The measure unit is the actual unit of the active document.
Note2: You can use formulas in the text boxes ("See the Calculator Tool")
Note3: When you select 2 or more shapes, and you select "Rotation Point" as
Reference Position, CADinTools uses the "Rotation Point" of the last selected
shape.
