modelling axis trouble
Hi,
I was watching a tutorial and they were able to change the modelling axis from local to world, screen etc. by either choosing the axis in the attribute manager or by right clicking to bring up an axis context menu.I am trying to do this with the move tool but the modelling axis options are greyed out in Att. manager,
and right clicking in my viewport does nothing.Help!?
Thanks

The modeling axis options aren’t available with primitive objects. Could that explain it?

I just tried making a cube editable and tried to change the modelling axis.
What I am now finding is that in object mode I can’t right click and get the context menu (or change it in attribute manager). But, in point, line or polygon mode I can.. Strange..

Yes, that’s why they call it the “modeling” axis. 😉
Switch to the axis tool if you want to move the axis in object mode, or use the Axis Center function.

Ah I see,
I guess it is all in the name, although in my circumstance all I wanted to do was rotate a whole object around global 0,0,0, not it’s own axis.
I guess I can use the axis tool and manually set it to 0,0,0As for the axis centre function, that’s one for me to look up!
Thanks for your help.
