The transpose function may be used to flip the column or row ordering and also swap the rows and columns of a surface. This operation will not affect the actual shape of the surface, merely the ordering of the control points. This can be particularly useful if you have imported a NURB surface which uses a different control point orientation from Maxsurf, or if you have rotated a surface and the column selection in the Body Plan view selects columns which are now closer to being longitudinal than transverse.

The Reverse Row Ordering and Reverse Column Ordering functions change the order in which the control points in a row or column are indexed.

The Swap Row and Column Axes function will make rows columns and columns rows. This can be useful if the columns have become longitudinal rather than transverse through surface rotations.
