Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed towards intuitive editing of 
three-dimensional models. In embodiments, salient geometric features associated with a 
three-dimensional model defining an object are identified. Thereafter, feature attributes 
associated with the salient geometric features are identified. A feature set including a 
plurality of salient geometric features related to one another is generated based on the 
determined feature attributes (e.g., properties, relationships, distances). An editing handle 
can then be generated and displayed for the feature set enabling each of the salient 
geometric features within the feature set to be edited in accordance with a manipulation of 
the editing handle. The editing handle can be displayed in association with one of the 
salient geometric features of the feature set.
