To Edit Individual Support Entities

Supports, or support entities, can be modified individually through a couple of tools.

Note: These steps assume you have loaded a part, have launched the support module on it, and have created some supports.
  1. Select the support to be modified using the Select support button from the toolbar.
    Note: A selected support entity is highlighted in light blue by default.
  2. In the toolbar, select from the Selected Support dropdown menu one of the functions to be performed.
Remove entity

Removes the support entity, leaving the anchors behind.

Edit entity

Spawns a dialog similar to the Edit tab in the context view, where you can modify properties of the entity, either by editing the property values directly, or by applying a set.

Move entity

Spawns a dialog to move or scale the entity in X and Y direction.

Zoom to selected support

Zooms and focuses to the selected entity.

Modify entity by polygon
Creates a 2D view of the cluster supported by the selected entity in the display. Here you may add and modify support by drawing polylines.
Tip: The polyline to modify the active support is represented in both the 2D view in the context view as well as the 3D view of the display and will also respect the perspective of the 3D view.
