Surface Plotter - Mouse Operations


Surface Plotter allows you rotate, scale, or move the surface plot by dragging mouse cursor over the image plus some keyboard key combinations. Mouse operations valid only when Surface Plotter is in surface plot mode.

  • Drag the mouse cursor to rotate surface plot. The angle of rotation depends on the delta of previous and current location of mouse cursor. You can rotate the surface plot about the z axis full 360 degrees, but elevation angle of the base plane is restricted to a value between 0 and 90 degrees.
  • Press and hold the <ctrl> button while dragging the mouse cursor to move the surface plot. The amount of translation depends on the delta of previous and current location of mouse cursor.
  • Press and hold the <shift> button while dragging the mouse cursor to scale the surface plot. The change in scaling factor depends on the delta of previous and current location of mouse cursor.
