The Design Tool can move or rotate one or several components through handles that are displayed in the 3D view. The handles can be enabled through the Action menu that is shown when a component is clicked.
The manipulation handles can rotate, translate alone one or two axes by clicking and holding on one of the handles.
- Click and hold on an arc to rotate it along that rotation axis.
- Click and hold on an arrow to translate it along one axis (X, Y or Z)
- Click and hold on the box to translate it along one plane
