Environment Tools Toolbar

The hyperlinks below link to the procedures that describe how to use the commands in the Environment Tools toolbar and its associated sub-toolbars. The Environment Tools toolbar contains the following sub-toolbars:

Environment Tools

See Environment Tools/Axis, below
See Environment Tools/Offset Plane, below
See Environment Tools/Snap Mode, below
Step Input Box
See Using the Step Input Box and Construction Elements in the 3D Simulation for Manufacturing User's Guide
Toggle Manipulation Handle Mode On/Off
