Positioning a Geometry from One Axis to Another Axis

The Axis to Axis command lets you transpose a geometry positioned according to a reference axis system to another target axis system.

The geometry is duplicated and positioned according to the target axis system.

  1. Under Result, select one of the following options:
    • : the result of the transformation is a surface.
    • : the result of the transformation is a volume.

    Important: This switch only applies to volumes as the transformation of a surface can only be a surface.

    If you multiselect volumes and surfaces as inputs, the switch only affects volumes.

  2. In the work area, select the geometry to transpose.

    Note: You can select several geometries.

  3. In the tree, select a reference axis system, and then a target axis system.

    Important: You can only select these elements in the tree.

    A preview of the new geometry appears.
  4. Validate .
