TYPE: Object State
TITLE: Force Operation

The Force operation is used to create an object level representation of a
force that can be referenced by a Force POP.  It can also be used to represent
a constraint force used by the Constraint POP.  The most common use for this
object is to provide control for Rigid Body Dynamics simulations.

You select the object that will be used as the parent for the new Force object,
and right-click to complete the operation.  The new Force object appears with
a transform handle to modify the direction and magnitude of the force.  The
rotate and scale parameters are also available in the operation controls bar
above the viewport.

You can change the Force object\'s parent object any time by hitting the
Reselect Geometry button or typing \'${h.pane.gview.redoselection}\'.  If
Secure Selection is turned off, selecting a new object will immediately
complete the selection and connect the new parent.  Otherwise, you right-click
to signify that the object selection is complete.

If Secure Selection is turned off, you can select any other object in the
viewport.  Doing so will switch to the operation appropriate for that object
type, and the current operation will be exited immediately.
