Result: A new weld object is generated, and the Weld Transformation operation is automatically executed to adjust the weld's scale and orientation.


Weld Transformation#

Automatically executed immediately after weld generation, enabling adjustments to the weld's scale and orientation.
Steps:

  1. Scale: Adjust by moving the mouse (LMB to apply, RMB to reset to default scale).
  2. Orientation: Adjust rotation by moving the mouse (LMB to apply, RMB to reset to default orientation).
