eta/DYNAFORM
functions are accessible via the three mouse buttons. To access a function, the
user moves the mouse cursor to select the desired function, followed by pressing
the left mouse button. In certain functions, the middle mouse button is used to
complete operations and the right mouse button is used to cancel the last
operation, such as creating a line, selecting nodes, surfaces, elements or
coordinate system. These three buttons can also be used with <CTRL>, <ALT>
and <CTRL>+<SHIFT> keys respectively for rotation, translation and
scaling. For complicated models, eta/DYNAFORM provides the point cloud mode and
Feature Line mode to accelerate the model display.
