Domain entities are used in the domains and handles concept to morphing by dividing the model into domains.  Handles are then used to control the domains shape.  When the handles associated with a domain move, the shape of the domain changes, which in turn changes the positions of the nodes inside those domains.  There are two groups of domains; global and local domains.  Local domains have several types including; 1D, 2D, 3D, edge, and general domains.  All types of domains are shown under the Domain folder within the Model browser.

Domains have a display state, on or off, which controls the display of a domain in the graphics area.  The display state of a domain can be controlled using the icon next to the domain entity in the Model browser.

Domains do not have active or export states.

 

The following panels can be used to create and edit domains:
