        "
   class SoTransformerManip
       The SoTransformerManip wraps an SoTransformerDragger for convenience.

        "
   class SoTransformManip
       The SoTransformManip class is used to manipulate transformations.

       A manipulator is used by replacing the node you want to edit in the graph with the
       manipulator. Draggers are used to to manipulate the node. When manipulation is finished,
       the node is put back into the graph, replacing the manipulator. "

Detailed Description

       Manipulators are objects you can swap back and forth into a scene graph at locations where
       you have an SoTransform node. They take the place of the SoTransform, continue to act like
       the SoTransform, but in addition give the user a 3D user interface, using draggers, for
       controlling the transform. When the user is done manipulating, the manipulator can swap
       itself back out, replacing itself with an SoTransform that represent the new transform
       value.

       Manipulators is one of the concepts that really made Open Inventor stand out against the
       alternatives when it came out.
