21.3.4. Parallel movement of view
In the 3D monitor, the view can be moved by moving the mouse with the mouse right button held down.
If parallel movement is performed repeatedly, the origin of the 3D monitor is sometimes lost. However, if this
happens, exit the 3D monitor and then restart it. The origin will return to its initial view position.

21.3.5. Selecting objects
In the 3D monitor, a corresponding item on the layout tree is selected and its display information is displayed at
"Properties" if a robot or layout object is clicked with the [Ctrl] and [Shift] keys held down. When display data held
by the robot, such as hand or free plane limit, is clicked with the [Ctrl] and [Shift] keys held down, the robot will be
selected.
Alternatively, if a location where no 3D monitor information is displayed is clicked with the [Ctrl] and [Shift] keys
held down, the layout tree will become deselected.
When a robot or layout is selected in the layout tree, arrows such as shown below are displayed at the reference
positions of the corresponding object in the 3D monitor.
