The FreeCAD mouse navigation consists of the commands used to visually navigate 3D space and interact with the displayed objects. FreeCAD supports multiple mouse navigation styles. The default navigation style is referred to as CAD Navigation , and is very simple and practical, but FreeCAD also provides several alternative navigation styles to choose from. The selected style is used for all workbenches. For more information about selecting objects see Selection methods. For more information about manipulating objects see Std TransformManip. With all navigation styles, unless selecting objects from a sketch in edit mode, you must hold Ctrl to select multiple objects.

I can't think of any reason at present why I cannot use it for all my modeling needs. And all the video tutorial out there are great.

In this section, I will explain how to make a copy of object like a sketche or a sokid, and to move it to other position. If the selected object has a dependency object, a Selection dialog will be shown. Make sure that all items are checked, then click OK. If you uncheck the dependency object e. Sketch in the selection dialog, the source and copy will share the same dependency object Sketch. In this case, if you change the dependency object Sketch , the change will be reflected not only in the source but also in the copy. A source object and a destination object are overlapped completely after copy operation.

A source object and a destination object are overlapped completely after copy operation. So we will move the destination object. There are 2 methods to move a object.

If this is your first contact with a 3D application, you will need to become familiar with some concepts first. If not, you can safely skip this section. It has an origin point and three axes: X, Y and Z. If you look at your scene from above, conventionally, the X axis points to the right, the Y axis to the back, and the Z axis upwards. In the lower right corner of the FreeCAD view, you can always see from where you are viewing the scene:. The point where the three axes meet is the origin. It is the point where the value of all coordinates is zero. For any given axis, moving in one direction will increase the coordinate value and moving in the opposite direction will decrease the coordinate value. Every point of every object that exists in the 3D space can be located by its x,y,z coordinates.

Alternatively, hold Shift and the right mouse button, then move the pointer. One generally "accepted" use of scaling would be to create an injection mold from an enlarged imprint of your part to allow for shrinkage. The default navigation style is referred to as CAD Navigation , and is very simple and practical, but FreeCAD also provides several alternative navigation styles to choose from. And if have to do that, why not just write Python scripts to construct models - it might be faster. Hold Alt when in the Sketcher. I've experimented with the working plane, no joy. Read the FreeCAD code of conduct! I am making progress with this, but still playing. Drag with one finger to rotate. Quick links.

But it isn't clear if this is even possible. Use PageUp and PageDown to zoom in and out. The Revit navigation style was modeled after Revit. Hold Ctrl instead to select multiple objects.

Hold the middle mouse button, then press and hold the left mouse button, then move the pointer.
