Is there any way to set the axes to prims instead of the sim? I am trying to angle a prim to border the windows at the roofline of a prow fenestration. I need to be able to angle the prim to match the wall angle, & then tilt it up to match the foofline.
I can get the wall angle just fine, but because the axes stay fixed on the whole sim instead of aligning itself to the new position of the prim, I can't rotate the other axis to match the roofline without screwing all the othe axes up. I can't eyeball it using the white ring feature either. The piece is too long & has to be exactly right.
Any help is appreciated.

I think I found it... setting the ruler to local seems to do it. I'm having one of those days where the answer won't pop in my head until I ask... & as soon as I do... there it is!

From: XiangMei Xingjian ... the answer won't pop in my head until I ask... & as soon as I do... there it is! Yeah, sorry about that. I sometimes forget how invasive some people consider telepathy. Next time I answer your question I shall try to restrain myself to using the forum instead - in this way, others may also benefit from my vast intellect. |

I think that's the best answer to a question on this board I've ever read.
