  1. Select the Cloud to Align (this is the cloud or mesh to reposition).
  2. Use Hide/Show as required.
  3. Click Add to define a first constraint by pairing two elements, one on the cloud to align, the second on the reference.

    2. In the dialog box, place your cursor on the line of this constraint and click under X, Y, Z to freeze or unfreeze those axes.
  4. Define a second constraint, then a third constraint (until the light is green).
