Using 3D grips for interactive editing of Inventor parts.

Inventor can edit parts not only through adaptivity and parameters but also interactively with 3D grips.

3D grips have to be enabled in the application options (the OP command): Tools > Application options, the Part tab, the pane 3D Grips. Then you can right-click on a part and enter the "3D Grips" mode - in this mode you can interactively modify the shape of the 3D part using the displayed grip points.
