In this mode, you can attach elements to the model base that will either fixate it or allow it to simulate jaw movements.
Note that working in this mode is optional.
This mode is available only when using data from both arches.

1. Check the placement of the automatically attached elements.
2. Use “Add Support Pin” to add more pins if needed. A maximum of 5 can be added.
If any of the pins are displayed in orange, their placement is not optimal, or it may
be coinciding with the drain holes. Adjust the pin’s placement by dragging it until
it is blue.
3. You can also make individual changes to each pin’s thickness and position. Click
the pin’s management button to adjust the “Diameter” and “Distance From the
Base” sliders.
Adjusting “Distance From the Base” can help shorten the pin if you can’t
avoid placing it near the drain holes.
4. To delete any pin, make sure the corresponding management button is selected and click “Delete.”
5. Use "Add Attachment" to attach elements other than support pins to the model. You can choose from the provided elements or import custom-designed elements from your local storage. A maximum of 5 attachments is allowed.
6. Attachments will have a 3D manipulator for you to scale, translate or rotate the
element.
Similarly to pins, if the attached element is displayed in orange, you
must adjust its placement.
7. To delete an attachment, make sure the corresponding management button is
selected and click “Delete.”
8. Click “Next” when finished.
