The 3D Right-Click Menu

When you right-click an object in a 3D view, Closeda menu displays .  You can use the right-click menu to cut, copy, and paste objects. You can also group and ungroup objects, and edit any 2D material in the viewport.  Three options available on the 3D right-click menu are not available anywhere else in the 3D viewport. They are:

  • Paste Dynamics lets you paste the dynamics of a copied object into another object. To use this feature:

    1. Copy the object whose dynamics you want to copy.

    2. Select the object to which you want to copy the dynamics to.

    3. Right-click the object to which you want to copy the dynamics to.

    4. Select Paste Dynamics from the pop-up menu. You will be able to see the pasted dynamics listed in the object’s Dynamics ribbon.

    5. If there are dynamics you didn’t want to copy to the selected object, simply delete them from the Dynamics ribbon.

  • Remove Transform and Absorb Transformdeal exclusively with the transformations of Move, Scale, and Rotate:

    • Remove Transform is an ”undo” feature that removes all moves, rotations, and scales that have been performed on the selected object(s). Note that it removes all of these transformations in one mouse-click; it does not remove them one at a time. Remove Transform returns the object to its original location, size, and orientation.

    • Absorb Transform locks the object’s transformations into the object; the object’s absorbed size, location, and orientation become its original. Once you use Absorb Transform an object, you cannot use Remove Transform to remove the object’s transformations.
