Camera
The mouse buttons for selection, rotation, panning and zooming are set in the Settings tab (Camera controls); Zoom with mouse wheel is the first option there. Animated camera transitions and Automatic Fit-All can be switched off for very large scenes.
Transparency
 |
Transparent components (except robots and their tools) makes the fences, conveyors and other equipment transparent so that the robots are clearly visible. The slider sets the transparency for all types; the list sets it per component type. Apply applies the values, Reset restores them. Robots, the tools on the robots and the tools in the docking stations always stay opaque. A single item can be changed with Set transparency... in the context menu of the Model Browser. |

Screenshots
The last toolbar button saves the 3D view as PNG or JPG. The image is rendered in the resolution of the view, independently of the panels around it – well suited for documentation.
