Move Axis? // New Users 1  |   Order by default Post by peterh // Nov 5, 2006, 1:25pm peterh Total Posts: 21 Hi, I've spent the past 45 min trying to move the axis of a door I've modeled, to the edge of the door. But for the life of me, I can't figure out how to move them. I know how to display them but can't seem to move them at all. Everything I try, moves the door instead of the axis. Can someone please suggest what I am missing? Thanks, Peter Post by peterh // Nov 5, 2006, 1:46pm peterh Total Posts: 21 Ok, disregard. FINALLY figured out that I have to normalize the location first then I can move them as I need to. Some days, the simplest things take the longest. :-) Peter Post by Steinie // Nov 5, 2006, 1:55pm Steinie Total Posts: 3667 I don't understand why you would have to normalize location first. Maybe you hit the space bar by accident. I created a door, moved it to another location, selected show axis, selected move arrow and moved axis to edge with no problem.

Click show axis again, and you can move it to your liking. No need to normalize it first.

That was very informative! I recall how I was able to move the axis in TS3 but for some reason, just couldn't get it to work in 7.1. I'll go back and it again following the steps provided. :-) PeterH
