In many cases, it might be necessary to transform structures, in order to build a new structure. For example, the LayerGeo module is used to combine 3D volumes. For this, the dimensions of the merged structures must be compatible. Thus, to merge two structures in Z direction, the dimensions in the X- and Y-direction must be the same.

For this type of operations, it can be useful to crop parts of the structure, grow the structure through embedding, and repeating or mirroring the structure or parts of it. To add or delete voxels of space in X-, Y-, or Z-direction, click the Options’ Edit… button.
