Bounding box relative to selected object
Hello,
I'm new, and I found a problem in AC3D and I cannot find a solution. I created a rotated cube (so the faces are not parallel to x,y,z planes). Now I want to move one face of this cube, but the movement, made in 3D window using bounding-box, should be done relative to object cube, and not relative to global axis. I cannot find a way to accomplish this. I mean that I need to move bounding-box relative to object coordinates, not global "world" coordinates. Please can you help me? Thank you! |

Re: Bounding box relative to selected object
Hi,
select your face and hit the "+" keyboard key ("+" and "-" keyboard keys move a face along its normal vector). You can set the move distance in the AC3D parameters ... Not really convenient, I whish for something better in the future.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but...
Did this ever get resolved in future editions? |

Re: Bounding box relative to selected object
Sorry, using + or - keys, is the best way to move in the direction of the normals now.

That's ok, it works well enough.
