tips for stringing/launching together composed for fast study

[reggio]

hi to all, often happens to have to perform fast studies or to sketch a new machine to present, creating it by making collages of various other pieces / assemblings, in those cases, it is not necessary, indeed it is a waste to create a clone and coding it, etc. etc., it would be much more convenient to take the model or the assieme, to save it as part and to be able to "stirate" to pleasure until you give it a form similar to give it to give it to the desired result, so only idea, so

If I were in 2d, I would use the iron command, when instead we find ourselves dealing with a subaxis, things become more complicated...

How do you do that?

in the example below for example I should widen of +100mm (50dx 50sx) dragging me around tree and bearings, perhaps without worrying too much about the angle of the changing conical, a stretch to give a maximum idea and have a footprint; in the next case I should compress, shorten of - 80mm (40dx 40sx)
how could I do in these cases and in other cases, without having to always clone and change everything?

Move face?
I use it to create the crude from an imaginary finished piece

flettere command, in extension mode

At least in part, there is no...

moving face is not present in environment together. you can not use the scale function because you should create a unique body.
the extension function recommended by shirokko seems to be the solution, but it only works in part environment and stretches only on the z axis then before using the function you have to rotate all the bodies in the correct direction

Hello and thank you! :

I tried but it gives me error, probably because of the commercial components (cuscinet) that cannot manage,
If they select only surfaces of cylindrical objects or "rights" then take the command ... but at that point I lose all jokes, holes, processing and in any case I must select every single surface that I want to move ..

you can create an ad hoc coordinate system, or rotate the extension axis dynamically

I tried to disable the bearings and using the command from tab mold tools (before I followed the indications of the help and I threw selecting surfaces and then dx key - wrong, gives error)

Yes, of course I had realized to save together as part, I go well, simplify the operations of "bozza"

ps: I will also try

that I'm stunned...

I honestly detest dynamic rotations. I always feel like I can't control it all the way. .

Reggio, have you tried?

Reggio, have you tried?

Hi, I only tried now, for what I saw, I prefer to move face,
this because you push in an extension doesn't allow me to select more bodies...

2019 allows me to do it. You have 2016, don't you?
However, the important thing is that you solved it.
