The Set Location option allows you to move vertices by setting their location with the following options:
- Set Position
allows you to modify the coordinates of selected vertices. The vertices may be selected individually. You can also select a Reference Point and based on its position, modify the X, Y, and Z (or R, θ, and Z) directions of the selected vertices.
Multiple vertices can be selected and modified at the same time. Typically, this function is used to modify a number of vertices to one specific coordinate, for example Y=0, to ensure a true symmetry plane.
- Reference From
allows you to select the reference point of the vertices to be moved. The reference point can either be an existing vertex, or a position on the screen.
- Set Coordinate System
sets the appropriate coordinate system.
Cartesian Coordinate System
Select which direction to move the vertices: X, Y, Z, or the Normal direction. Enter the number of units of distance.
Cylindrical Coordinate System
Select which direction to move the vertices: R, θ, or Z direction. Enter the number of units of distance.
- Vertices to Set
specifies the vertices to be moved. Select the vertices to be moved and click .
- Increment Position
allows you to move vertices by the specified increment in any direction. For example, vertices can be moved 10 units in the X-direction by entering "10" in the Modify X option.
- Set Coordinate System
sets the appropriate coordinate system.
