Snap the Bottom Wall to the Geometry

You can snap the bottom wall to the geometry.

  1. In the tree or in the 3D area, right-click an environment and then select Snap to Geometry.
    The geometry is on the Bottom wall of the environment.

    Important:
    • You cannot use the Snap to Geometry option on sphere environments.
    • Make sure that the geometry is properly defined in an absolute coordinate system so that the bottom face of the bounding box coincides correctly with the bottom wall of the environment.
  2. Optional: To define the Snap to Geometry option as a default option, click Snap to Geometry in the General tab.

Center a Geometry in an Environment

You can center a geometry in an environment.

In the tree or in the 3D area, right-click an environment and then select Best Fit.
The geometry is centered in the environment and the environment is back to its original size.
