Local / Global control
IstakaCiti started this discussion in General Discussion

Thanks Scrubs for making this available to us. Started using it recently and figured out most of the options. However I am not able to make out Local/Global selector, can someone please explain?

Hello,

Global: The handles (arrows for translation or circles for rotation) remain fix in the world coordinates.
Local: The handles follow the object rotation (actually the pivot point selected).

In practice, I use the Local mode to build and sometimes the global mode to organise my scene afterwards.

Left hand side is in world coordinates and right hand side is local:

Got it, seems like local/global co-ordinates in blender.
Thanks !
