Controlling the Cura LE Viewpoint
Use your mouse or trackpad to move
the camera view. Hold down the right
mouse button on GNU/Linux and Windows,
or Control on Mac OSX, and move your
mouse to rotate the virtual print bed.
Hold the middle button, or shift while
clicking to pan up, down, left, and right.
3D Model Manipulation
The buttons on the left-hand side of the Cura LE interface are used to manipulate the 3D model
on the virtual print surface.
Move
Cure LE adds more precision to positioning your objects on the virtual print bed. Move your
model using a handle for each axis (red for X, green for Y, blue for Z) or by entering in the
position for each axis for more precise movement.
Values entered are relative to the current
displayed postion. Negative Z-axis
movements can be used to cut off the
bottom of the model and start the print
where it intersects the virtual print bed,
useful for improving adhesion on models
without flat bases.
Note: The Lock Model check box prevents
mouse-based movements. Manual
numerical axis movements are still allowed
when checked.
