hi guys,
a while back i stumbled upon a function that allowed me to move my subtools by dragging them around instead of having to go to the deformation palette. I’m having trouble finding that again, can anyone point me in right direction please?
i remember that it looked like my mouse pointer had the blue green and red lines of the xyz axis on it when i hovered over the part of the model i wanted to move…
In edit mode, just use the Move transpose function (w), and drag on on the middle circle.
Outside of edit mode, W brings up the legacy move manipulator which sounds like what you describe, but that is generally only used in 2.5d work.
oh yes of course scott i forgot about this. i was looking for something else, but this works too
thanks!
You can also hold down the Alt key while in Transpose mode and click on your model and move it around that way.
