Reposition parts in the Workspace (build
volume)
Build Setup gives you many ways to move parts
around in the
Workspace . For example, you can:
`
Drag parts
`
Positioning parts numerically
`
Snap parts a 3-D grid
`
Rotate and align parts to each other or a
plane
You can even have Build Setup place your parts
automatically. In time, you’ll learn optimal
placement and orientation strategies for the
types of parts you build most often.
Set parameter values in the build packet
“Parameters” are settings in a build packet that
you can change. Parameter settings apply to
parts or the entire build.
You set parameters in Build Setup’s Part Profile
Editor and Build Profile Editor dialog boxes.
Parameters control most aspects of how a part is
built.
And, as with part placement, you’ll eventually
discover the best parameter settings for the types
of parts you build most often.
