The Model Data Transform command moves and/or rotates a large portion of the design objects in a model from one location in the model to another. The software disconnects the selected objects from the surrounding objects before transforming them. This operation does not transform read-only objects or volumes. However, there is an option to allow the transformation of objects that are not in Working status.

When you attempt to use this command, the software performs two verification checks:
-
A permission group named MDRMDT PG exists in the Project Management hierarchy.
-
Your level of access to MDRMDT PG is set to Full Control.
-
-
If either of the conditions listed below exists, the command is not available. In these instances, you must contact your project administrator to gain access to the command.
-
Your level of access to MDRMDT PG is set to Read access or Write access.
-
-
The MDRMDT PG permission group does not exist.
You cannot undo an model data transform (MDT) operation. As such, best practice is
to create a model backup before starting a model data transform operation.
