Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Object axis question

This one seem to other me for a long time - Forcing the move/roptate/scale tool to work along an objects axis,

I remember that I used to be able to modify it in the Move Tool Settings but it seem to not affect it anymore - ....

I know that in component mode the Move/Rotste/Scale Tool will do but in Object mode - I am stuck.

double click the move /rotate etc tool in the toolbar o the left and change it to object,world, local space as required.

I think that should sort it
