This diagram illustrates how the selected object (position A) is rotated.
Lines from the first to the second point (1 to 2) and from the second to
third point (2 to 3) define the angle by which the object is rotated (for
example, 90 degrees). The second point (2) is used as the rotation center
point.
4 Slide out the Measure panel, and click Transform Selected Items
. This rotates the selected object from position A into position B (as
shown in the previous diagram). Clicking this button again, rotates the
object from position B into position C.
To resize an object with the gizmo
1 Select the object you want to resize in the Scene View.
2 Click Item Tools tab Transform panel Rotate .
3 Use the scale gizmo to resize the currently selected object:
To resize the objects across a single axis only, use colored arrows at
the end of the axes. To resize the objects across two axes at the same
time, use colored triangles in the middle of the axes. Finally, to resize
the objects across all three axes at the same time, use the ball in the
center of the gizmo.
You can modify the center of scaling. To do this, place the mouse
over the ball in the middle of the gizmo, and hold down the CTRL
key while dragging the ball on the screen.
