Transform Item Tools

While some of the standard modeling tool are useful for working with items, there are a few layout and setup-specific tools available that can speed up these workflows. These item-specific tools are differentiated from component-specific ones by their purple icon color scheme. For information about using a specific tool, click its link below.

Transform
	Transform	Combines move, rotate and scale transformations into a single tool.
	Move	Moves a selection across a specific distance.
	Rotate	Rotates a selection by a specific number of degrees.
	Axis Rotate	Rotates a selection, affecting a single axis at a time.
	Scale	Makes any selection larger or smaller by changing the scale percentage factor.
	Uniform Scale	All three axes are constrained, forcing all scaling operation to be uniform.

Clone
	Clone Items	Creates duplicates of the selected geometry.
	Scatter Clone Items	Generates a random point cloud onto which clones of the original geometry are placed
	Curve Clone Items	Clones geometry along a user-defined curve.

Array
	Array Items	Creates copies of the currently selected geometry in an ordered pattern.
	Radial Array Items	Copies the selected geometry into a circular or helix pattern.
