Drag nodes sculpt tool

Dragging an existing node results in the node being moved to the new grid coordinates. Nodes are moved within a plane parallel to the construction grid. This is achieved by the program temporarily adjusting the grid elevation to the elevation of the node while it is being dragged.

If the drag is on to another existing node then the operation takes into account the existing node, depending on the current drag on node setting:

Drag on node–Collapse: The dragged node is deleted and references to the dragged node are replaced with references to the target node. So, for example, an element attached to the dragged node will end up being attached to the target node.

Drag on node– Joint: The dragged node is moved to the same position as the target node and a joint is created to connect the dragged and target nodes. The target node is made the primary of the joint and the default linkage is applied.

Drag on node–Co-locate: The dragged node is moved to the same position as the target node.

Drag on node–Ignore: The target node is ignored.

The current drag on node setting may be set via the Sculpt > Sculpt geometry cursor modes menu, or the right-click menu when in the Drag nodes sculpt tool.
