## Name

oed — Places MGED directly into the matrix edit mode.

## Synopsis

`oed` {`path_lhs path_rhs`}

## DESCRIPTION

Places MGED directly into the matrix edit mode. The path_rhs must be a path to a primitive shape, and path_lhs must be a path to a combination that includes the first component of path_rhs as one of its members. The edited matrix will be the matrix in the final component of path_lhs that corresponds to the first component of path_rhs. The last component in path_rhs is used as the reference shape during object editing.

Note that for scripting the object to be edited must be in view so a B or draw must be used on the object before using the oed command.

## EXAMPLES

The example shows the use of the oed command to place MGED into matrix edit mode. The matrix in the final component of path_lhs that corresponds to the first component of path_rhs will be edited.

Example 1. Place MGED in matrix edit mode.

`mged>``oed group1/group2 region1/shapea`

Places MGED into matrix edit mode, editing the matrix in group2 that corresponds to region1, using shapea as the reference shape.
