Moving nodes


In MESH you can change the location of any node of your mesh. In this case all adjacent elements (edges) will be also transformed right after the displaced node.

To displace a node:

  1. From the Modification menu choose the Move node item or click "Move Node" button in the toolbar.

  3. Set new coordinates for your node in the Coordinates set of fields.
  4. Click the Apply or Apply and Close button.
