Editing multiple primitives

You can edit multiple primitive surfaces or solids of the same type, at the same time.

This function is available for primitive:

• planes
• blocks
• cylinders
• cones
• spheres
• tori
• springs

For example, to edit multiple primitive blocks:

1. Select the primitive blocks that you want to edit:
   • Press and hold the Ctrl or Shift key and click the blocks.
   • Click and drag the cursor over the blocks.
2. Double-click one of the selected primitives.

   The dialog to edit the appropriate selected primitives is displayed, for example, the Block dialog.

   — The properties that differ between the selected primitives are highlighted in pink.

   

   — The range of values is displayed when you hold the cursor over a property.

   

3. Edit the properties.
4. Click OK to accept the changes and close the dialog, or Cancel to cancel unapplied changes and close the dialog.
