AI Bound Editing Tools

The AI Bound Editor has 2 tools to make editing a root template's AI bounds easier:

1. The Resize Interaction Mode
2. The Auto Size Tool

Resize Interaction Mode

_{The resize interaction mode toggle}

The resize interaction mode works the same way as the Shape Edit Interaction Mode, providing a visual representation of the template's AI Bounds which you can click and drag.

To use the resize interaction mode:

1. Make sure your template has the correct AI bounds shape (box or cylinder)
2. Click the resize interaction mode toggle button
3. Mouse over the face you want to expand or contract
   1. For cylinders, this can be the side (radius) or top (height)
   2. For boxes, this can be any individual face (x, z, y), an edge (moves 2 faces) or vertex (moves 3 faces)

For additional options, right-click the resize interaction mode button.

Auto Size Tool

_{The auto size tool}

The auto size tool automatically resizes the AI bounds to fit the template's visual.

To use this tool, simply assign the correct visual to your template and click the auto size button.
