Help :: Construction
A few tools compose the interface and let you realise your BioBloc very easily.
1-The Toolbox
The tool box on left enable you to carry out 9 operations, here in detail :
 |
Add a bloc by clicking on an existing bloc. Maintaning Ctrl pressed add this bloc to selection. |
 |
Delete a bloc and all blocs linked to it. |
 |
Selection tool, it is possible to select several blocs by maintaining Ctrl pressed. Arrows and squares which appears on the selected blocs make it possible to directly modify dimension and rotation on the 3D view. |
 |
Orientation tool, to turn the bioBloc, knowing that it will move according to thearrowformed on the ground by 5 squares. |
 |
To move laterally through the scene. Also accessible by Space + right mouse button. |
 |
Turn around the scene. Also accessible by right mouse button. |
 |
Zoom. Also accessible by Ctrl + right mouse button. |
 |
Undo and redo an action. |
2-Dimensions
| These 3 cursors modify dimensions (height, width, depth) of the selected bloc(s). So to obtain strictly identical blocs, just use multiple selection. |
 |
3-Rotations
| These 3 cursors modify rotations of the selected bloc(s) (compared to the bloc on which it is placed). The locks on cursor's left lock corresponding rotation during simulation, useful for instance to lock member or to simulate an articulation. |
 |
4-Position
| This cursor modify the x and y position for selected bloc(s), from the bloc on which it is dependent. |  |
5-Color
| This module modifies the selected bloc(s) color. The first panel modifies saturation and luminosity, the second shows the selected color. The cursor control the color's hue composite. Finally the squares in bottom memorize a color by clicking (to erase one : alt+click ). |  |
