Title: Feature Request: Scale And Rotate Options For the Minipulator
Post by: Cyber-Angel on February 08, 2007, 10:29:53 PM
I was thinking that it would be nice if the manipulator (When you click on some thing and it turns yellow with red, green and blue handles) had scale and rotation on the manipulator like other 3d packages allow, as we already have positioning all that is required now is scale and position it would also be nice if the option to select these where available via a right click menu.

This would aid in work flow so that you do not need to open a node to adjust scale and rotation.

Regards to you.

I guess I've been missing that topic as well Will.
Nevertheless it's a nice request, I think too it would improve the workflow.

If it's going to be implemented it would also may be nice to choose which axis to manipulate? I still consider this painstaking at moments.

I agree, been able to select the axis is pretty standard though there are a few applications that do not have this but I do not recall there names.

As to this been asked for in another thread I think I would recall having seen that and I have read many of the posts here but do not recall ever seeing it mentioned, I could be mistaken however but I don't think so (It was Master Leonardo da Vinci who said "It is the wise philosopher who can put up both hands and say, I do not know").

Regards to you.

Haha that would be awesome.  I have a Wacom too but I only use it in Photoshop.

It's always good to ask for features that are desired, but it's safe to assume that basic things like object rotation handles will be added. Many things are in a fairly early state in the Technology Preview.
