We can set the default position of an object in world space (in essence, its 0,0,0 space) by going to Modify > Freeze Transformations. The second node is the shape node, for altering properties for the geometry of the object – smoothing, rendering options etc.Īdding modifiers or materials to an object will add new node tabs to the attribute editor.
The first node generally deals with positional data of the object. Here you can still change position, rotation data etc, but there are also separate tabs for each material applied to an object. The attribute editor is another tab on the right hand side of the screen. This works for multiple selected values at once.

If you highlight a propety and drag the middle mouse button over an empty patch of 3D space, you can slide the value up or down. The bold text above is the name of the object. Here numerical values for each axis are displayed. If you need to precisely manipulate an object, this can be done in the channel box, located on the right of the screen.

Press the D key to open a special gizmo that can both rotate and move an objects Pivot, for manual repositioning. If an objects pivot is off centre and you want to reset it, go to Modify > Centre Pivot. The pivot point for an object defaults to the centre of its mesh. Scale works similarly to move and rotate – gizmo controls allow you to scale to individual axes. Note that in object mode, rotating objects will rotate them around their own individual axes, not as a group. Similar to the move tool, we can get rotation settings by double clicking on it – allowing us to get object or world orientation for the axes. The outermost ring allows you to rotate the object at an axis perpendicular to the camera itself. Maya uses the same circular axes gizmos to rotate objects that 3DS Max does. Global mode will skew objects, whereas object mode will keep their proportions but space them apart. We can also activate a soft selection mode from here where we can move multiple objects. Here we can switch axes from World orientation to Object orientation. Unlike 3DS Max’ yellow triangles, click on the little coloured squares to move on that plane perpendicular to the same coloured axis.ĭouble Click on the Move tool and we can open move settings. With an object selected, Click on an arrow to move in that axis.
NB – doesnt need to comletely suround an object. Underneath Select tool is L asso tool for making odd selection shapes. You can click and drag a marquee over objects to select them. Will also deselect individual items from a multiple selection Shift + L Click to select multiple items. Click empty space or another object to deselect it.
