To Use the CTRL Key With Grips

Some object grips have multiple functions. For example, a face grip on a free form mass element has these possible grip modes:

• Move ortho
• Move
• Move plane
• Pull ortho
• Pull
• Push ortho

When a grip has multiple modes, this information is displayed in the grip tip. To switch between the different grip modes, use the Ctrl key.

1. Select the object.
2. Pause the cursor over the grip, to see what grip modes are available.

   The first mode listed is the mode that will be started when you select the grip without using the Ctrl key.

3. Select the grip.
4. Press Ctrl to switch to the next editing mode.
   Note: You need to press the Ctrl key only once, and then release it. This switches the grip to the next editing mode. After releasing the Ctrl key, you can start editing the grip. Do not keep pressing Ctrl while editing the grip.
