Tools

The currently selected object can be modified using GroIMP's 3D transformation tools. There are three tools available: translation, rotation, and scaling.

To switch between these modes, either click the corresponding button in the toolbar or click on the selected object multiple times to cycle through the modes.

The currently active axis is highlighted in yellow.

Translate

In Figure 1, you can see three arrows, which are the handles for GroIMP's 3D translation tool. By dragging an arrow with the mouse, the selected object is moved along the corresponding direction.
