Lock piece orientation
Electroweak5 started this discussion in Suggestions and Ideas

Maybe there should be a tool to lock a piece's orientation, for example, when you snap a piece to another piece, it automatically rotates it to the "natural" position with that piece. Maybe there should be a way to keep the piece in the orientation it was before you snapped them together.

You can do this by manually changing the object's rotation in the transform panel.

I know. But maybe you can lock the orientation.

Locking the orientation doesn’t really mean anything in 3D space. Snapping matches the orientation and position of the axes attached to the source and destination points. I kinda understand what you mean but the programme cannot really know which orientation you want.

Okay! I don't think it would be that useful anyway. I was just wondering.
