Attribute manager settings
Each structure tool has up to three tabs of settings that you can adjust in the Attribute manager:
Options, Tool and Snap Settings.
The settings on the Options tab are different for each tool and are described later in this chapter, in
the descriptions for each structure tool.
The Tool tab settings are the same for each tool, as are the Snap Settings. The Tool tab and Snap
Settings tab are described below.
Tool
Realtime Update
Here you can choose whether the changes will be applied automatically in realtime as you adjust
the parameters. If your computer cannot keep up with the realtime updates while you are using the
tool, we recommend that you disable the option and click the Apply button to manually apply the
changes instead.
When you select a tool the changes you make in the Attribute manager will only be displayed in
realtime in the viewport when you do one of the following:
 Click the Apply button.
 Click in the view (does not work with all tools).
 Press Return after entering the value into the Attribute manager.
Apply
If the Realtime Update option is disabled, you must click the Apply button in order to apply the
changes to the objects.
New Transform
To reapply the tool, click New Transform. For example, with the Extrude tool, you can extrude multiple
times using the same values by repeatedly clicking New Transform.
Reset Values
If you click this button, the tool will be reset to its default values.
