Advanced Member kirkl Posted July 16, 2015 Advanced Member Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) Current transform gizmo has a huge and annoying drawback. Its transform center is always and only in the center of material texture. It turns precise positioning of projected picture /material into a huge pain in the a.. Especially being accustomed to scale from a randomly placed center in Photoshop(by digits only), Zbrush, Fusion, any vector soft etc. So for example if I want to paint a window from some render or photo I first have to crop source file the way a corner of the window would be in precise center of a file. Only that way I could scale precisely from that corner . If the source file is big enough and the detail I want to project is far from image center the positioning it on the screen/model turns into a pure torture. Not sure if placing the center of transform randomly is a huge problem or not. I am asking for that feature for many years already, long before the transform gizmo appeared. But it's a main reason I still rather use Zbrush for texture painting than 3d coat. Edited July 16, 2015 by kirkl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
