Move Component Tracker Boxes

Move Component Tracker Boxes

Move Component Tracker Boxes

(OP)
Hello just a quick question:

When using the move component command (dynamic move), is it possible to turn off the XYZ co-ordinate and distance/snap tracker boxes? Or at least lock them elsewhere on screen?

Also, is it possible to attach a picture to these posts i.e. a screenshot showing what I'm talking about?

Thanks in advance, Carl

RE: Move Component Tracker Boxes

No, not permanent off. You can hide temporarily by pressing "F3" ( try press F3 multiple times to see how it works.)

You can attach pictures in two ways, the simple is to select the link " ...or upload your file to ENGINEERING.com" below the input box. The more difficult but more elegant is to insert a link to the picture, which then must exist on some web server somewhere else. there is a button above the input field "Picture".

Regards,
Tomas

Thanks Thomas, that works for the XYZ location tracker which helps.
It doesn't seem to affect the distance/angle tracker when dragging handles, presumably we are stuck with that one.

Also thank you for the upload information, I'll keep that!

Regards, Carl
