    Main window contains following areas:

    1. Toolbar
    2. Add mechanism button
    3. Assembly tree
    4. View controls
    5. Transformation panel
    6. Interactive View CS
    7. Version info
    8. AI Assistant
    9. Interface help

    Select any mechanism to show the Transformation Panel. Use the transformation panel to change the object's position. In robot cells, this panel is also useful for table calibration.

    The Transformation panel has 3 main functions:

    1. Save to library. It is possible to change the selected mechanism name and save it to the local Mechanisms Library using the Save to library button.
    2. Flip mechanism. Use Main window button to flip mechanism position.
    3. Reset values. Use Reset button to zero all fields.
