Ongoing Anim8or Development / Alignment Ruler
« on: April 18, 2014, 07:49:00 pm »
Alignment Ruler: The CAD ruler now has some preliminary alignment properties. You can align shapes along their top, center and bottom with the Alignment Ruler.
- Make sure CAD mode is enabled.
- Click on the Alignment Ruler to enable/disable alignment. This is the little arrow at the left or bottom of a view.
- Click drag the ruler to move it; double click in and empty part of the lower or left-hand parts of a view to set an entirely new position.
- If you have one shape selected, the ruler will snap to it's top/center/bottom when you are within the current Grid-Snap distance. The color will change from Blue to Yellow to indicate that it has snapped.
- If you move a shape when the ruler is selected it will snap to the ruler in a similar manner.
- The ruler only appears in the front, back, top, bottom, left and right views.
- I'm working on point alignment for an upcoming release.
