Align the direction

Pick a geometrical object to orientate the axis of the Manipulator.

Three methods are supported:

• Picking a point orientates the axis to that point.

• Picking an edge or line aligns the axis with that edge or line.

• Picking a face orientates the axis normal to that face, at the picked position.

Pick		Aligned

It has to be kept in mind that although the Manipulator axis will be aligned with the picked object, its position remains the same as before. Also there is no link between the Manipulator and the picked element with which it has been aligned. From here the Manipulator’s position and orientation can freely be modified again.
