1. A computer aided design station for manipulating a three-dimensional scene including at least one object, comprising:

  • a display operably linked to the design station to display the three-dimensional scene including the at least one object;

    a three-dimensional icon displayed in the three-dimensional scene on the display, the three-dimensional icon including at least one axis segment to cause translational movement of the at least one object;

    an input unit operably linked to the design station to receive in tandem a two-dimensional movement signal to move the at least one object and a selection signal to select the at least one axis segment for operation; and

    a processor operably linked to the input unit to render, based on the two-dimensional movement signal and while the selection signal persistently selects the at least one axis segment, a one-dimensional translational movement of the at least one object exclusively along a scene axis parallel to the selected axis segment.
