# oed

Places MGED directly into the matrix edit mode.

        oed
          path_lhs path_rhs

## DESCRIPTION

Places MGED directly into the matrix edit mode. The path_rhs must be a path to a primitive shape, and path_lhs must be a path to a combination that includes the first component of path_rhs as one of its members. The edited matrix will be the matrix in the final component of path_lhs that corresponds to the first component of path_rhs. The last component in path_rhs is used as the reference shape during object editing.

Note that for scripting the object to be edited must be in view so a `B` or `draw` must be used on the object before using the `oed` command.

## EXAMPLES

The example shows the use of the `oed` command to place MGED into matrix edit mode. The matrix in the final component of path_lhs that corresponds to the first component of path_rhs will be edited.

### Place MGED in matrix edit mode.

mged>`oed group1/group2 region1/shapea`

Places MGED into matrix edit mode, editing the matrix in group2 that corresponds to region1, using shapea as the reference shape.
