Hi there,
I want to make a turntable that turns from the center, but if you look at the floor, there is a model located at the back, so there is a problem that the center turns erratically. How can I fix it?
Activate the Gizmo and click the “-” icon on the upper right corner. It will change to a multitool icon (3 “-” symbols stacked).
ALT-click the Gizmo on the part of the subtool you want to be the center and then click ALT-“rewind icon” to reorient only the Gizmo to the world axes.
Then use the Gizmo to move all subtools at once so that the Gizmo center lies on top of the world center shown on the floor. Change to the various orthographic views to get the Gizmo aligned to the world properly.
The movie turntable will still rotate around the world origin and whatever axes are selected in Movie:Modifiers (X,Y,Z or Screen Space) but now your model will be centered there too.
If you’d rather not move the subtools then simply Merge:Visible to create a new Tool called Merge_ … containing all your subtools in one Tool. Then move it as described above and make your turntable. Delete the merge when done if you don’t need it any more.
