Translator Properties
- Color
-
Defines the color of the control points handle.
By default, the color is green.
- Cross
-
Defines the cross representation for the control point handle.
The following representations are available:
- Lines.
- Arrows.
- Triangles.
- Nothing.
By default,
the representations are lines.
- Center
-
Defines the center representation for the control point handle.
The following representations are available:

- A point.
- A circle.
By default,
the representation is a point.
- Pre-selection feedback
-
Defines whether the pre-selected element, mesh or point, while editing
control point is marked by a circle
.
By default,
this option is not selected.
- Discrete Manipulation
-
Defines whether the control points handle jumps from the control
point position to the pointer position
.
By default,
this option is not selected.
- Inflate Directions 3D Feedback
- Performs an inflate operation in the work area.
- Deepness Dumbbell
Shows a different translator feedback:
The point means that the control point/mesh is moving towards the user. The x means that it is moving backwards.
This mode gets active if the angle between the view direction and the control point modification direction is less than the tolerance set.

- Type V
-
Defines the line type along V for the control point mesh.
The following representations are available:
By default,
the representation number is 1.
- Thickness V
