Joining 1D Elements Graphically

1D elements that form a linear string, within the straightness tolerance (ref. Preferences > Sculpting > Straightness tolerance), can be joined up into one element using the Sculpt > 1D element operations > Join string of 1D elements menu command. (This documentation is also applicable to the Sculpt > Geometric entity operations > Join string of lines menu command.)

Move Entities / Copy Entities

This dialog box is presented in several guises depending on the context in which it is opened; it is used to move or copy nodes, elements or members.

Moving and Copying Entities Graphically

The sculpt move and copy commands operate similarly. Both can operate on nodes, elements or members. Both operate by shifting, rotating or reflecting the selected items. The amount of shift can be specified by a polyline.

Other Labels

The other Labels page of the Labels and display methods dialog box is where various types of geometric entity related labels may be switched on for display in the current Graphic view.
