Pivot Basics Part 1a: Creating Figures


Take a look at this screen This is the screen that pops up when click on the "Edit Button"
Pretty confusing eh?
Yeah, I know, it took me about ten minutes to find out what does what.
Oh, you can also access this screen by going to "File", then "Create Figure Type"
So, when you get to this screen these are the controls

“Add line” This will create a new line segment to attach to the model.

“Add circle” This will create a new circle segment to attach to your model.

“Toggle segment kind” Change the segment from a line to a circle, or vice-versa.

“Change segment thickness” This edits the thickness of separate segments. By setting the thickness to 0, you can make “invisible lines” these are useful for making parallel lines.

“Duplicate segment” Makes a copy of the highlighted segment, which can then be attached to another segment.

“Static/Dynamic segment” Dynamic segments can be moved around in animations. Static segments are segments that cannot be moved.

“Delete segment” Removes the highlighted segment from the model.

“File” Here you can start a new model, open a saved one, save the current model or add the current model to the animation.

“Options” Here you can undo a mistake made with the model or switch to edit mode.

“Edit mode” This mode is used to change the length of a line or circle on your model.
