Dynamic Rotate (continual)

The Dynamic Rotate tool can be used to perpetually rotate the view of the model around an axis until a convenient view is found.

Double click onto the auto spin tool shown above. Press and hold the spacebar or left click in the editor to pause a view. Right click and select a standard view to return to previous views.

Zoom & Pan Tools

View

Zoom tools such as zoom in and zoom out can be found in the toolbar. The mouse wheel can also be used to increase or decrease the on-screen magnification. They keyboard directional arrow keys can also be used to nudge the image by increments. Larger nudge increments can be set using the Preferences menu in the main SharkCAD title bar. The directional arrow keys can only move the image laterally. To drag the on-screen image dynamically, the Pan tool is used.

Dynamic Pan

The Pan tool is used to dynamically drag the image in the editor. This tool is found in the toolbar but the keyboard spacebar can be used to pan the image mid-command. Hold down the keyboard spacebar and slide the image when the hand symbol is shown, illustrated below.
