Dynamic transformation

It is possible to transform the geometries dynamically by dragging the mouse over the graphics window.

Give menu command Edit->Transform->Dynamic... Then system waits for the user to select geometries to transform by a model selection cycle.

And after selecting geometries dynamic transformation dialog will appear where you can change translation direction or rotation axis. Drag the mouse 'horizantally' to translate or rotate the model dynamically. When you achieve the transformation you need press OK on the Dynamic Transformation Dialog to set the new position.
