Duplicating rotation in Softimage Issues
When ever i For ex. was to make a wheel (car Rim) and i was to place a bolt to be duplicated around the center of this wheel and then i hit Duplicate special i always have Softimage telling me im moving it in x,y, space which then makes the duplicate go Diagonally as opposed to around the pivot (whether i have locked it or not. Including when i Freeze all rotation, translation, scaling. I dont know what to do...
Re: Duplicating rotation in Softimage Issues
You need to move the pivot of the bolt to the center of the wheel, and then use duplicate multiple, with rotation, and translation 0-0-0.
You can reset the pivot after that to make it match your center. Moving your center would also work, but it would be a little more problematic to restore your original center position.
