Title: Max question
Post by: Ulundel on February 27, 2003, 12:01:29 pm

This is a n00b question, so I allow you to throw beer bottles at me. Preferably unopened ones.

Now, why the hell this transform gizmo looks like this?

Yeah, but the thing I'm trying to move the light with is called transform gizmo.

well what? you have it set as view align, and you're in camera view, so it'll rotate following the perspective. Y and X axis are red coz you've restricted them that way ( push F5->F8 or just click on any axis to switch ). If you mean something else, well, you gotta explain better.

Heh, I actually would very much like to set them back as they were before. You know what I mean...big...glowing..with those rotate archs (when rotating that is).

well you pushed alt or crtl/something, since I can't remmeber what is it, you can just change it back in the preference tab.

You can "activate/deactivate" the gizmo with the x key, IIRC.  :)

:doubt:
stupid me. I keep using this key (perfect when you want to select a vertex and the gizmo gets in the way ) and I can't even remember about it :doubt:
