3.9. Centrate
The tool allows you to set the center point. The model rotates and scales with respect to this point.
This may be necessary if the model is altered with cutting tools. The tool has two modes: auto and
intaractive (manual). To select mode, click on the arrow on the right side of the Centrate
button on the toolbar and select the mode. The current mode is marked with a
flag.
Centering is performed in space. Depth centering can be disabled. To enable/disable depth
centering, click on the arrow on the right side of the Centrate button and select the
Centrate depth item. If depth centering is enabled, the item is marked with a flag. Centering in a
plane parallel to the screen plane is always performed.
To activate the tool, click on the Centrate button. If the auto mode is selected, activate
the tool by clicking the left/right/middle mouse button. To continue work with this tool, use the
button with which the tool was activated. To learn more about tool control, see Section 1.14. If the
auto mode is selected, centering will be performed immediately after the tool is activated. If the
interactive mode is selected, the cursor takes the form of a crosshair. Set the center point by clicking
on it with the left mouse button.
