Wakeup

The Polygon->Wakeup command in the Model module allows you to bring a selected face of a polygon mesh model to one of the working planes (xy, xz, yz).

Note:

Once you move the object on the front plane (xy plane) with the Polygon->Wakeup command, you can start creating new elements on the selected face.

Procedure

1. Tag at least three points of the polygon you want to bring to a plane.
2. Choose the Polygon->Wakeup command.
   
   The following dialogue box is displayed:
   
   
3. Select the plane to where you want to bring your model:

• Plane YZ brings the model to the view in the Right window.
• Plane XZ brings the model to the view in the Top window.
• Plane XY brings the model to the view in the Front window. This is the default.

4. Click Ok.
5. Pick the model.

The original object is rotated and translated into the working plane you selected.
