move an object

Post by emanuele1977 »

Hi,

I would like to move the seat of this car back, but when I select it, also other elements are selected and I can move only them all. I would like move only the seat. How do I do it?

you can move (selected) vertices inside some object. Switch an object to vertices level, pick Select\Separated tool and right-click on a vertex of your interest; a group of selected vertices will get selected; do the same with other (not yet selected) group of vertices) until everything related to an object of your interest is selected; then use Modify\Move tool to move selected vertices.

It might be an easier way to hide unnecessary vertices (using select, and then Display\Hide) so they don't disturb you when you perform selection. I can't remind whether ZModeler2 has a Select\Element tool. If it does - it might be a better choice than Select\Separated.
