Ok A problem

When i copy an object and go to move it with the 3 arrows, the arrows are really far away from the object and when i move it, the object moves very quickly and further then i want it to.

Is there anyway to fix this?

U might want to center ur piviot point go to
Modify_>center Piviot

once you do this, ur tools (arrow) should be in the middle of ur object.

Also if you would like to move the piviot to the top, bottom or side of the object just hit the > Insert button on your keyboard to activate move pivot and then just hit > Insert button again when your happy with the position to exit piviot movement.
