Alignment Tools

The alignment tools dialog is a convenience dialog for showing the various alignment tools all together in a dialog that stays active.  All of these tools are also available in the Alignment drop down just above the Dialogs drop down. With the alignment tools, the first sub-object selected becomes the target for the alignment.

  Creates a linear alignment along the world coordinate system X axis.

  Creates a linear alignment along the world coordinate system Y axis.

  Creates a linear alignment along the world coordinate system Z axis.

  Makes the selected vertices or edges collinear. If vertices are used, the first two selected define the line. If edges are used, the first edge defines the line.

Makes the selected edges or faces parallel to the first one selected.

  Makes the selected edges or faces perpendicular to the first one selected.

  Makes the selected edges the same length as the first one selected.

   Make faces coplanar to the first face selected.

   Makes the selected sub-objects planar on the control mesh by averaging the positions of the vertices involved.  The SubD representation will not appear flat unless the faces are also bounded by a creased edge.  

  Creates a planar alignment on the world coordinate system perpendicular to the X axis. The SubD representation will not appear flat unless the faces are also bounded by a creased edge.  

  Creates a planar alignment on the world coordinate system perpendicular to the Y axis. The SubD representation will not appear flat unless the faces are also bounded by a creased edge.  

  Creates a planar alignment on the world coordinate system perpendicular to the Z axis. The SubD representation will not appear flat unless the faces are also bounded by a creased edge.  

Snaps the selected sub-objects to the specified plane.
