Once in Component Edit mode, you can select any number of circles manually, using the “Select All Circles on Face” tool, or by triple clicking the component. When in Component Edit mode, this tool allows you to simultaneously push or pull one or more circles on a face a user specified distance.

This plugin contains two new tools that help manipulate a group of true circles when editing a component partial circles or arcs will not be affected.

It will be used in other videos as well moving forward. You can see how it’s used in the Drawing a Refrigerator Cabinet video. The most relevant tool to CabWriter is the Construction Line tool. However, many of the CabWriter training videos reference Construction Plus tools, particularly the Construction Line tool. Unfortunately, we don’t yet have written documentation for the tools, but we hope to provide written documentation at some point.
