Define insertion 1.png The insertion axis can be set by clicking on the balls at the top of the arrows and moving to the correct position while holding the left mouse button. Or in a classical way by looking at the model in sight of the insertion axis and clicking on the button "Set current view as insertion axis". These settings have to be done for each abutment on every tooth.
