Action Control Buttons

There are two buttons for action control in the bottom left corner of the application window.

action_control_buttons_1UndoUndo the previous action.
action_control_buttons_2RedoRedo the previous action.

Side Toolbar

The Side Toolbar provides data visualization and control tools that can be used across the entire process of working on simulations.

frontal_viewFrontal ViewShow the front side of the data.
right_lateral_viewRight Lateral ViewShow the right lateral side of the data.
left_lateral_viewLeft Lateral ViewShow the left lateral side of the data.
maxilla_viewMaxilla ViewShow the occlusal surface of the maxilla.
mandible_viewMandible ViewShow the occlusal surface of the mandible.
occlusal_surface_viewOcclusal Surface ViewShow occlusal surfaces of the maxilla and mandible.
how_hide_reference_dataShow/Hide Reference DataShow or hide such reference data as midline, arch line, and face data.
scenario_comparison_modeScenario Comparison ModeSee the selected scenario or all scenarios in comparison to the original model.
side_toolbar_9Grid SettingsShow or hide the grid, and control its position in relation to the model (overlay on/off).
side_toolbar_8RotateRotate data by click-and-drag.
model_display_modeModel Display ModeChange the model display mode between the original color display mode and the study model display mode.
lower_jaw_movementLower Jaw Movement On/OffWhen on, this shows the lower jaw movement together with teeth.

Toolboxes

Toolboxes provide features necessary for working in the corresponding stage. Below are the explanations for the features provided in each Toolbox across the entire app.

Data Alignment

align_by_3_pointsAlign by 3 PointsSet three points on the arch to align it with the occlusal plane.
align_by_4_pointsAlign by 4 PointsSet four points on the arch to align it with the occlusal plane.
delete_pointDelete PointDelete the last added point.
detach_data(1)Detach DataReset alignment and move data to the initial position. Select points on the data to align it manually.
multi-viewMulti-ViewWhen on, this function shows data from four different angles.

Simulation Preview
