Moving the Light

This command is used to move the light, for instance when the element is displayed in shading mode.

Memo

The light is a pseudo light designed to produce a shadow when the element view window is in shading mode.

The position of the light is set relative to the point of view and line of vision of the window. By default, the light is located in the rear right quarter of the line of vision.

One point light must be used as the light.

Left

: Moves the light perpendicular to the line of vision.

Middle ([Shift] + Left)

: –

Right

: Moves the light along the line of vision.

Operating Procedure

1 Click [Move Light] on the [View] menu. The active window will be set in shading mode.

2 Drag the item in an element view window while holding down the left mouse button.

The light will move on a plane perpendicular to the line of vision, causing the view of the element to change accordingly.

Dragging upward while holding down the right mouse button will move the light forward along the line of vision, and dragging downward will

move the light backward along the line of vision.

Memo

Dragging while holding down the [Shift] key will in-

crease the movement of the light.

3 Press the [ESC] key.

View–Area Orbit mode will be canceled. However, the element will remain displayed in shading mode.
