Changes the animation path by enabling you to move selected points or the entire animation path to a different X, Y, Z location in the Main view. This command enables you to move the following path elements:

  • One or more points

  • One or more lines

  • One or more paths

For more accurate path placement, you can use the N, E, EL coordinate information in the right-hand side of the status bar as a positional reference.

  • To change the time associated to a animation point, use the Animation Sequencer. For more information, see Adjust Points in an Animation (Display Set and Key Frame).

  • You can select an animation point, a line segment or the entire path in the Main view. Open the Properties dialog box (click View > Properties, or right-click > Properties) to see information such as the associated display set name, time, and X/Y/Z location. Smart Review automatically updates the information as you click on other points in the path.
