Hi all

When I zoom right in and see my prim joint needs adjustment - I would like to be able to do the adjustment there and then and not have to zoom out again to find the coloured arrows... before anybody says use prim co-ords - I do if they are simple shapes I am joining...

Am I missing something? Is there a way of viewing the movement arrows when in close up? Or a keyboard way of adjusting?

Thanks!

the way i know is to use the little arrows in the object tab (will move .01)
or type in numbers for smaller movement :)

Once zoomed in you will need to manually change the figures in the position fields if you don't want to zoom out. Whenever I join to prims together i always manually change the figures to get as clean a join as possible. This is not really achievable using the coloured positioning arrows.

If they would just fix the reference grid already, none of this would be necessary. Hint, hint. Lindens, wanna get on that? You built it right the first time; stands to reason you can undo whatever broke it.

Oh, wait, I'm dreaming again. Never mind.
