Description
The Std UserEditMode command allows the user to choose what would be the behavior when editing an object when double-clicking it on the Tree view.
Usage
Choose an edit mode among available ones:
- File:EditModeDefault.svg Default: the object will be edited with its default mode. The edit mode is defined internally to be the most appropriate according the object type: for example, it will be shape properties edition for Part primitives and PartDesign features, placement edition with transform tool for boolean operations, ...
- File:EditModeTransform.svg Transform: the object will have its placement editable with the Transform manipulator
- File:EditModeCutting.svg Cutting: ??? this mode is implemented as available but seems to be currently not used by any object in FreeCAD
- File:EditModeColor.svg Color: the object will have its individual faces color editable with the face color editor
Notes
- Not all objects support all edit modes. In case the selected edit mode isn't supported by the edited object, it will fall back to its default mode
