Rotating tools?

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi,

How do you rotate a tool without having the tool move around on the canvas?
I’m trying to rotate a sphere… I can achieve the vague rotation I want with the transpose handles however the sphere has been moved on the canvas. Basically I want to “Rotate in place”.

Also Isn’t there a place where I can input numerically the exact amount of rotation that I want and on what axis ?

You have to use the Action Line to rotate in place if the subtool has been moved off of the pivot point. If the subtool wasn’t moved off of pivot point, then you could use Rotate slider in Deformation submenu to enter numerical values on either the X,Y or Z axis. Clicking “S.Pivot” button in Transform menu will move the subtool back to the pivot point.
