General – Realtime Rotation

Revised 04/20/2022

 

The "Realtime Rotation" feature is used to rotate the model in either 3D-View or 3D-View-All modes.

To rotate a member, hold down the “Ctrl” button on the keyboard and use the middle “roller” button on your mouse to rotate the model to any position required.

 

 

It also allows the model to be rotated and the user can still zoom in on a specific area.

Realtime Rotation using zoom feature & layers:

With the Realtime Rotation feature the zoom feature can still be used to zoom in on a specific area to check for interferences, check connections, etc.

It can also be used with the layers option to turn layers on & off to eliminate any unnecessary items that might distract the user from being able to see or check specific items.

To turn layers on & off, go through the layer icon on the main screen of Vision and turn the layers on or off that are needed.

 

3-D View All zoomed in on a haunch connection with all the layers turned on.

 

The zoom can be utilized with one of these methods:

·        Use toolbar at the top of the vision model, select Zoom Window or use keyboard shortcut “W” & draw a box around the chosen area

·        Double-clicking the left mouse button will zoom into cursor location

·        Use scroll wheel to zoom into cursor location

 

3-D View-All with all the layers turned on.

 

3-D View All with certain layers turned off to enable the user to better identify any interference issues.

 

 

To turn layers ON or OFF – Click on the layer button/icon on the toolbar or click on the Hot Key “L” & the Layers table opens.  Uncheck any layers that are not required or check any layers that are required.
