     Note: Once the file has been loaded, you can set up reference and destination points.
   • By direct input: Directly input the transformation matrix in the fields.
   • By system: Select the reference and destination system from those available in the HyperMesh database. The transformation matrix that is found will be stored as a .csv file.
   • By three nodes: Three nodes as reference and three nodes as destination are used for the transformation. You can also save the transformation matrix as a .csv file.
     Note: When the entity Component is selected you can transform the associated systems that were found.
