The Transform gizmo centered on the biped's COM.
TIP To avoid deselecting the COM inadvertently, you can use Lock Selection
on page 3609 to keep your selection on the center of mass, ignoring all other
objects in your scene.
TIP You can scale the Transform gizmo using the - (hyphen) and = (equal
sign) shortcut keys. Scaling the gizmo makes it easier to use, but does not
affect the transform values.
3 Select the Move gizmo's Z axis.
This turns off Body Horizontal and turns on Body Vertical.
4
Turn on Body Rotation on the Track Selection rollout.
3ds Max replaces the Move Transform gizmo with the Rotate Transform
gizmo. You can now change the biped's orientation.
To Lock all Biped COM Tools:
This procedure follows the concept from the previous procedure, and centers
on selecting multiple COM tracks at the same time, as well as locking them.
1
On the Track Selection rollout, turn on Body Horizontal.
2
Turn on Lock COM Keying.
